A Self-Managed Superannuation Fund (SMSF) is a way of saving for retirement, it is private unlike industry super funds and can be managed by yourself. It is run for the member’s benefit. A SMSF can allow for greater flexibility and control over savings and investments.
A SMSF can be a very powerful retirement planning vehicle that brings with it many advantages however there are also some things to watch out for.
If you have, or are thinking about setting up a SMSF its important to recognise that you need a quality team to support you. This team can include not only Accountants but also Financial Planners, SMSF Auditors, Finance Brokers and Banks, and even sometimes a Legal team. Accountants are only one part of this journey and need to work closely with Financial Planners.
