18 Mar 2025 LGSS Pty Ltd (Trustee des Active Super Fonds)ASIC: 10.5 million AUD against LGSS (Active Super) for greenwashing on exclusion screens €6.12m
Following proceedings by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC, the federal corporate and financial services regulator), the Federal Court of Australia on 18 March 2025 ordered LGSS Pty Ltd, trustee of the Active Super pension fund, to pay 10.5 million AUD and to send a notice of its misconduct to members and publish it on the fund's web pages. The fund had advertised that it excluded investments in, among others, gambling, coal mining and oil tar sands and, after the invasion of Ukraine, Russia, yet held such investments directly or indirectly; the court had found the breaches of the ban on misleading representations in June 2024.
Advertised exclusion criteria must be reflected in all holdings, including indirect ones; deviations must be detected and corrected on an ongoing basis.

- Sector
- Financial services and insurance
- Mitigating circumstances
- The court accepted some contrition, cooperation with ASIC through attendance at voluntary conferences and compliance improvements (including ESG and consumer law training for the board, executive leadership and staff, and an external review of internal controls), but gave less weight to contrition and cooperation because of how the case was defended; the merger with another fund trustee reduced the weight of specific deterrence.
- Liability of senior managers
- LGSS accepted in the proceedings that senior management was ultimately responsible for the absence of properly functioning systems to prevent false ESG representations; the proceedings were brought against the company only.
