2016 was a very big year for superannuation and SMSFs. It’s now 9 months since shock waves were sent through the super industry, with the announcement of significant changes to the super rules. Also in 2016 the ‘accountants’ exemption’ (Corporations Regulations (2001)) was removed with the result that accountants must now be licensed in order to give SMSF advice. Together these changes will have far-reaching affects for all generations of Australians.
To help you understand what this all means for you, I have written a three-part series of articles to:
-
Summarise the main changes to the superannuation legislation;
-
Delve deeper into the changes to the contribution cap & rules;
-
Look more closely at the pension changes; and
-
Outline our new SMSF advice delivery services and how we can help you to navigate the new super
landscape within your SMSF.
