Financial Planning | Self Managed Superannuation

Take control of your superannuation


Self Managed Superannuation also known as DIY Superannuation is the fastest growing sector within the finance industry. As of June 2011 there was more than $418 Billion held in self managed superannuation across approximately 7,500 superannuation funds.

The main reason for this growth is that people ultimately want more investment options which the retail superannuation options can't provide. Setting up a Self Managed Super Fund (SMSF) allows you to take control of your super and where it is invested.

Self Managed Superannuation (SMSF) is typically suited for clients who have sufficient assets inside their superannuation account. To establish an ‘SMSF’ it is preferable to have investable assets equal to $200,000 or more across all fund members. (Maximum of 4 members is allowed within an SMSF). This potentially means that a couple can establish a self managed superannuation fund with 2 other family members allowing them to combine their super gaining greater purchasing power.

With a well structured self managed super fund (SMSF) you can take control of your super while gaining access to direct investment such as shares, direct property, currencies, commodities and personalised structured investments. And as of September 24th 2007 a Self managed superannuation fund (if structured correctly) can secure mortgages which allow you to buy property which you otherwise couldn’t afford.
