Self Managed Super Funds

Summary

Self Managed Super Funds (SMSF's or DIY), are the fastest growing sector for superannuation savings in Australia. As at December 2006 there were over 310,000 SMSF’s holding over $200 billion in assets. This raises two questions:
  • Why is superannuation such an attractive vehicle for accumulating savings for retirement?
  • Why are SMSF’s proving to be so popular?
Special points of interest covered in the report
  • Find out about the substantial tax concessions available through super and how they can boost your retirement incomes. These benefits are generally not well understood.
  • A Self Managed Superannuation Fund may be the best choice if you have a large sum to invest and are looking for wide investment choice, flexibility and lower costs.
  • More choice and control means more responsibility so expert administrative and management support is very important to maximise your financial resouces for retirement.
