In Australia, there are over 1 million people who have made the step to control their own super and setup their own Self Managed Superannuation fund (SMSF).
The Self-Managed Super option is no flash in the pan; the sector now represents a combined asset value in excess of $550 billion.
The reasons for this are numerous, but we find control is the number one driver:
- control over investment decisions
- control over asset allocation
- control over fees and control over assets.
Australians wanting to take advantage of tax strategies that are not available in retail funds is also a major factor for setting up an SMSF.
Many of our clients choose to invest their superannuation in a self-managed super fund (SMSF). The benefits of self-managed super for those with substantial amounts to invest are manifold. Most importantly, it gives control of your investments to you, rather than a fund manager.
