Are SMSFs the secret to wealthy retirement?

In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, host Liam Garman speaks with self-managed super fund (SMSF) specialist Natalia Clack, unpacking the growing appeal and complexities of SMSFs.

SMSFs are gaining traction among investors seeking greater control over their retirement savings, offering broader investment choices and attractive tax advantages.

Clack highlights the importance of education when navigating the intricate rules that govern these funds.

Many misconceptions persist, including the belief that SMSFs are too complex or require extensive expertise, but Clack stresses that specialist guidance can make them both manageable and rewarding.

With the ability to invest in property, gold, cryptocurrency, and other asset classes, SMSFs offer greater flexibility than traditional super funds.

However, compliance and independent auditing remain crucial to ensure funds operate within legal boundaries and meet regulatory obligations.

As the landscape evolves, illustrated by proposals such as the Division 296 tax, Clack says staying informed about legislative changes is essential.
