Self-Managed Superannuation

SMSF is the latest buzz word. SMSF has some specific benefits over regular super funds!

Self-managed super funds (SMSFs) work like any other super fund but the responsibility of managing it rests solely with the trustee (you). Establishing and operating a SMSF is a major financial decision. After all, with this type of fund you’re both a member and a trustee. This means you have control over and responsibility for your fund’s investment decisions. You also have to manage the fund’s legal responsibilities.

We make the whole process of investing carefree. By using a Self-Managed Superannuation Fund to invest directly in shares and other listed securities maximises the control, transparency and cost savings the structure provides. Self-Managed Superannuation Fund members are able to visualise and monitor the assets underlying their retirement savings with a level of ease not offered by other superannuation accounts.

Investing in shares and other listed securities requires a level of expertise, experience, time, and access to research which most Self-Managed Superannuation Fund trustees do not have.

The Politis Investment Strategies Managed Discretionary Account Service provides Self-Managed Superannuation Fund trustees with access to structured portfolios which are discretionarily managed by a highly experienced Investment Management Committee, while retaining direct legal and beneficial ownership of all investments.

We have a comprehensive Financial Planning service that will not only set up your SMSF correctly but also provide you with a road map called a Statement of Advice (SOA).
