SMSF

Self-Managed Superannuation Funds or SMSFs are set up and managed by the members directly as trustees or directors of the trustee company. They make their own investment decisions and are fully responsible to comply with the SIS Act and Tax Law.

SMSFs must be run for the sole purpose of providing retirement benefits for the members. It is strictly monitored by ATO to protect the sole purpose. So, it is very crucial for the member to understand the regulatory requirements and obligations as a trustee before choosing to set up an SMSF. We advise our clients on different compliance requirements in accumulation phase & pension phase, concessional & non-concessional contribution limits and closely monitor their fund operation to avoid any non-compliance which may result in a heavy tax penalty.
