Protection

All self managed super funds are protected from bankruptcy and other legal claims, so if anything happens your retirement nest egg is safe.

Lower Fees

One of the greatest benefits of a SMSF is the lower fees it offers trustees. will charge their annual fees based on the balance of your super, so the more you have in the account, the more they will take as a result. These fees not only increase as your nest egg grows, but they are calculated on a percentage sliding scale. On the other hand, a self fee will only be a flat fee that will never increase as your super account grows.

Other Benefits

* Self managed superannuation super funds are allowed to control the timing and disposal of assets. This means if you obtain an asset today and it appreciates by a certain percentage by the time you retire, you can transfer it to your complying pension fund and you will pay no tax on the realised capital gain of the asset.
