Notes:

1. The data has been obtained from annual reports made by the trustees of superannuation schemes "registered" under the Superannuation Schemes Act 1989 to the members and beneficiaries of those schemes. Data in respect of the Government Superannuation Fund is not included.

2. Some registered superannuation schemes are "investment only" schemes, whose members are trustees of other registered superannuation schemes. To avoid double counting, investment only schemes are excluded from this data.

3. Some registered superannuation schemes are "multiple class" schemes, whose members may be trustees of other registered superannuation schemes. Some double counting of assets and members may therefore exist.

4. Some totals may not add exactly, due to rounding.
