What is a Self-Managed Super Fund (SMSF)?

A Self-Managed Super Fund (SMSF) is a private superannuation fund that you manage yourself. SMSFs give you complete control over your retirement savings and investment decisions, allowing you to tailor your investment strategy to your specific financial goals.

With an SMSF, you can invest in a wide range of assets including cryptocurrency, forex, indices, commodities, and more. This flexibility allows you to diversify your retirement portfolio beyond traditional investments like shares and property.

Trading through your SMSF offers significant tax advantages, with earnings taxed at a concessional rate of just 15%, and potentially 10% for long-term investments held for more than 12 months. Once you retire and start drawing a pension from your fund, your investment earnings may be tax-free.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, your SMSF can invest in cryptocurrency as long as your trust deed permits it and the investment aligns with your fund's investment strategy. The ATO recognizes cryptocurrency as an asset class that SMSFs can hold, subject to the sole purpose test and other superannuation regulations.

Trading through your SMSF offers lower trading commissions, competitive spreads, and reduced management fees compared to traditional super funds. You also gain access to professional-grade trading tools and multiple asset classes without additional platform fees, helping you maximize returns and minimize costs.

You'll need your SMSF's ABN and TFN, a copy of your trust deed, trustee identification documents (passport or driver's license), and your SMSF bank account details. We may also require additional documentation to verify your fund's compliance status.

The minimum deposit for an SMSF trading account varies depending on your account type. Generally, we recommend a minimum SMSF balance of $200,000 to ensure cost-effectiveness, though you can start trading with a smaller amount. Contact our team for personalized advice.

Yes, SMSFs can trade forex and CFDs provided your trust deed allows for derivative trading and it forms part of your documented investment strategy. Keep in mind that these are leveraged products and carry higher risk, so they must be consistent with your fund's risk tolerance and investment objectives.

As an SMSF trustee, you must ensure all investments comply with superannuation law, maintain proper records, prepare annual financial statements and tax returns, have your fund audited annually, and ensure all investments are made for the sole purpose of providing retirement benefits to members.
