Australian super funds express interest in the $22.7bn Future Made in Australia fund to support local industries, including green growth.

Australian super funds show interest in the $22.7bn Australian manufacturing scheme, known as Future Made in Australia fund, which aims to support local industries like lithium processing and develop green industries.
