CANBERRA, ACT, Feb. 5 -- The Treasurer of Australia issued the following media release:
The Albanese Government welcomes the very strong returns achieved by the Future Fund which saw our sovereign wealth fund grow by almost $30billion last year.
This is a great result for the Future Fund and a great result for our country.
In the 2025 calendar year, the Future Fund made a return of 12.4percent, up from 12.2percent in 2024 and 8.0percent in 2023.
The Fund has also achieved a 10‑year return of 8.5percent, above the mandated target return of 7.0percent.
These strong returns were achieved under the Future Fund's updated Investment Mandate, introduced by our government.
Those changes were all about modernising the Future Fund to align with the nation's priorities, where it makes financial sense to do so.
These results show the Future Fund hasn't just maintained its strong returns, but it has surpassed them for 2025.
Our opponents said the sky would fall in when we updated the Future Fund's Investment Mandate, but these returns show those criticisms were unfounded.
