The benefits of a self-managed superannuation fund (SMSF) are that you have more control over how your funds are invested, more choice of investments, more taxation benefits, and protection of assets in the event of bankruptcy or other legal claims.

For larger balances, administration costs can be saved. However, establishing and managing them efficiently and compliantly requires skill and knowledge. Our concierge service can manage all aspects of funds establishment and ongoing management relieving you from the administration and compliance burden.
