SELF MANAGED SUPER FUNDS – OVERVIEW

Self Managed Superannuation Funds (SMSFs) have become an extremely popular investment vehicle for Australians.  Such is the popularity of SMSFs that at last count there were over 600,000 complying funds in Australia.  The popularity of such funds can be attributed in large part to the following advantages that a SMSF holds over retail and industry funds:

  • Ability to have personal control over investment decisions
  • Flexibility in terms of tax, estate planning and benefits structure 
  • Ability to borrow to purchase certain assets in the fund by way of a limited-recourse loan
  • Ability to hold unique assets in the fund

We are able to assist you with the mechanics of self-managed superannuation administration from setup and ongoing administration to winding up a fund.
