Industry superannuation fund the Local Government Superannuation Scheme (LGSS) has bought a Sydney office building for $41 million.

With the purchase of the Sydney building, the fund now manages more than $500 million in direct property.

"Directly held property is a core component of LGSS's investment strategy aimed at maximising our members' retirement savings," LGSS chair Brian Harris said.
