Frequently Asked Questions
What is an SMSF and how does it work?
A Self Managed Super Fund (SMSF) is a private superannuation fund that individuals manage themselves, with up to six members. Trustees are responsible for managing investments and ensuring the fund complies with super and tax laws. SMSFs must have a trust deed, operate for retirement purposes only, and lodge an annual tax return and audit with the ATO. They provide more control over super assets but also come with added responsibilities.
What are the reporting obligations for an SMSF?
SMSFs must prepare and lodge an annual return with the ATO, which includes financial statements, member balances and investment details. In addition, the fund must be audited annually by an independent SMSF auditor. Trustees also need to maintain records of all decisions, transactions and changes to the fund for a minimum of five years. Ensuring this paperwork is accurate and up to date is critical for compliance.
Can I set up an SMSF myself?
While it’s legally possible to set up an SMSF yourself, professional support is strongly recommended. There are several complex requirements—such as structuring the trust, appointing trustees, registering with the ATO, and ensuring the investment strategy meets super laws. Working with a qualified accountant helps reduce the risk of costly mistakes and ensures your fund is compliant from the outset.
What types of investments can an SMSF hold?
SMSFs can invest in a range of assets, including listed shares, managed funds, term deposits, property and cash. The crucial requirement is the sole purpose test: investments must be made solely to provide retirement (or death) benefits, with no present-day benefit to members or related parties. Even otherwise allowable assets can breach this test if used personally or if they involve loans/guarantees to members; they also need to align with the fund’s investment strategy and be on arm’s-length terms. It's important to seek advice from a professional to confirm compliance.
