Industry Super Australia (ISA) is peak body for industry super funds in Australia.

It has 15 industry super funds as members,[1] which between them hold 5 million accounts.[2]

Not every industry super fund is a member of the peak body, but most are, including Australia's largest industry funds such as AustralianSuper, CBUS, HESTA, and HostPlus.[3] Some funds unaffiliated with ISA still refer to themselves as 'industry super funds' for historical reasons.

The body styles itself as "a research and advocacy body for Industry SuperFunds", which aims to make the most of the retirement savings of the individual members of its member funds.[4]

As of September 2020, the Board of ISA is chaired by Greg Combet and includes representatives from industry super funds, former (mostly Labor) state and federal ministers, and the ACTU Secretary, Sally McManus.[5]
