Supporting and investing in the industries that our members work 

Media Super

For over 30 years, Media Super, which in 2022 merged with Cbus Super, has been committed to working with the print, media, entertainment, arts and broader creative industries with the aim to deliver strong long-term superannuation returns for members.

We also advocate, support and invest back into the industries our members work in to help build vibrant, robust sectors and opportunities for them.

Fulcrum Media Finance

Australian creatives have long been recognised globally for their outstanding talent on stage, screen, and behind the scenes, and Media Super found a way to celebrate and fund Australian talent.

Along with our grassroots support of the industry, Media Super invests into the film and television industry through an arrangement with Fulcrum Media Finance where we provide access to pre-sale advance loans for film and television productions across Australia and New Zealand.

The investment was originally launched as a $30 million revolving loan in 2010, and then doubled to $60 million in 2015 to meet funding demand. Following the merger with Cbus Super in 2022, our support continued with an increase to $80 million.

As at December 2023, Fulcrum has now loaned more than $720 million to help finance the production of more than 420 high-quality films and TV shows, supporting the Australian film and television industry.

Some of the productions we’ve supported over the years include: Limbo – Mystery Road, Beep and Mort – Series 2, Aunty Donna’s Coffee Cafe, The Dressmaker, Lion, Top End Wedding, The Newsreader, as well as a host of other children’s programming.

Strong partnerships that support our members’ interests

Media Super is also proud to support the industries where our members work through partnerships with our members’ unions organisations such as the ACTU and other industry associations. These organisations are vital in advocating for fair working environments as well as fostering creative and robust industries for our members.
