Drawing on the combined expertise and experiences in Australian and Hong Kong, SuperBankRatings emerges as the third generation of ratings success and represents a natural evolution in the financial ratings industry, leveraging the expertise and methodologies developed by its forerunners.
Australian Superannuation Ratings, founded in early 2000, pioneered transparency in the superannuation industry and has been instrumental in recognising and promoting excellence among super funds. Today it is a leading research and ratings “go-to” for the Australian usd$2.7 trillion superannuation industry. The Superannuation Ratings annual awards identify top-performing funds across various categories, helping members make informed decisions about their retirement savings. The various ratings and awards, have become a benchmark for excellence in the Australian superannuation industry.
Following this, Hong Kong MPF Pension Ratings was launched in late 2000, focusing on Hong Kong’s usd$170 billion Mandatory Provident Fund (MPF) market. It quickly established itself as the market leader in supporting the maximisation of Hong Kong’s retirement savings.
The MPF Pension Ratings research platform has been actively monitoring and analysing the performance of MPF schemes, providing valuable insights to both regulators and members. The Pension Ratings’ projections and analysis have helped drive improvements in the MPF system.
Now, SuperBankRatings is strategically positioned to continue this tradition of ratings and awards excellence, and successful time-tested track record.
