The current economic climate is proving challenging for many in the superannuation industry. In addition, both the Tax Office and the Federal Government are showing increasing interest in the selfmanaged superannuation fund sector at a time when members of those funds are increasingly looking to explore opportunities that might arise. In that context it is important that participants in the industry understand where the boundaries lie.
This event examined many of the current issues facing superannuation advisors particularly in the areas of contributions, residency, insurance and investment strategies. The aim was to look at ways of addressing, in a practical way, the concerns that can arise in these areas, against a backdrop of increasing scrutiny by regulators and policy makers.
