Ongoing Compliance & Reporting
SMSFs involve ongoing responsibilities, from maintaining accurate financial statements to lodging annual returns and coordinating independent audits. Trustees must ensure contributions, pensions and investment activities align with superannuation laws, while also keeping up with frequent regulatory updates.
Our SMSF services provide the framework to maintain compliance while freeing trustees to focus on investment strategies. By streamlining administration and ensuring all obligations are met, SMSF management reduces the risk of penalties and ensures the fund remains eligible for concessional tax treatment. Long-term trustee support helps build confidence and sustainability in managing retirement wealth.

FAQ
Everything You Need To Know
What is an SMSF and how does it work?
A self-managed super fund (SMSF) is a private superannuation fund regulated by the ATO, where members are also trustees. SMSFs allow members to manage their own retirement savings and investment decisions, but they must comply with strict legal and reporting obligations. This includes maintaining records, preparing annual returns and arranging independent audits each year.
What are the benefits of an SMSF?
SMSFs can provide greater control and flexibility over investment choices, including property, shares and managed funds, compared with standard superannuation accounts. They can also offer estate planning advantages and the ability to tailor strategies to members’ needs. However, benefits must be weighed against the cost, time and responsibility of managing compliance.
What are the risks of running an SMSF?
The main risks include non-compliance with superannuation and tax laws, potential penalties from the ATO and poor investment decisions due to lack of diversification. Trustees are personally responsible for all decisions, which can be time-consuming and complex. It is important to seek professional advice to reduce these risks and maintain compliance.
