SMSF Benefits & Compliance

Self Managed Superannuation - super made easy for you

Is your SMSF Tax Compliant?

Confidence in your Self Managed Superannuation Fund's (SMSF) compliance with evolving taxation and regulatory controls can be even more important than its investment flexibility, tax efficiency and access to your fund's day-to-day performance details. As an LBW client you can expect and receive superior advice and optimum service standards that ensure your savings, tax advantages and retirement are not compromised by a non-compliant fund structure or flawed investment strategy.



To request information on your SMSF's compliance e-mail, phone (+61 2) 9411 4866 or complete an on-line enquiry to gain access to the knowledge and experience of a LBW superinduction specialist.

Check your current SMSF performance online

One of your many advantages is the LBW SMSF administration service, secure, real time on-line access to your own fund's performance data, meaning you will never again have the frustrating 12 month annual wait before receiving an outdated investment summary.

Australians have an ever increasing volume of savings invested within almost half a million Self Managed Superannuation Funds. As individuals' super assets have grown, many have sought to gain control over the day-to-day management of their superannuation.

Professional super consultants who can provide strategy and advice

Greater control over the timing of asset disposal, and easier tax management are advertised as some of the major benefits of SMSFs. Subject to certain restrictions, your SMSF can access investments that are not always available in a public offer superannuation arrangement. These include investing up to 100% of the fund's assets in business real property and alternative investments for example instalment warrants, artwork and specialist assets. In addition, a properly developed LBW investment strategy for your SMSF may permit you to choose far less diversification in asset selection than would be permitted in a large fund.

A valuable SMSF benefit can be their ability to retain your accumulated capital gains in the fund through its accumulation phase for realisation during the pension phase. The capital gain on an asset can be deferred until your retirement, and then rolled over to an account based pension, thus avoiding realisation of the capital gain on the asset.

Another notable consideration is that your SMSF may, if eligible, be able pay tax annually, rather than on a quarterly basis. This may occur if your fund's 'notional tax' due on business and investment income (including notional net capital gains and losses), is less than $8,000 in an assessable income year, if your fund is unregistered or has no need to be registered for GST. Your SMSF may even be able to defer tax payments, providing your fund with the opportunity to benefit from significant additional earnings on retained tax monies.

The ability to tax-effectively manage your super, is reliant on the professional advice of a superannuation specialist, and the added reassurance provided by instant access to your fund's up-to-date investment and performance data. LBW & Partners provide the advantage of both, balanced and expert professional guidance only available to you from ethical professionals that are Chartered Accountants as well as Financial Planners, plus LBW's SMSF administration service to empower you with your own real-time superannuation investment data.
