PART B. bell potter self managed superannuation Fund WHAT IS SUPERANNUATION? Superannuation is a long-term savings arrangement that operates primarily to provide income for retirement. Superannuation generally involves employers, the selfemployed and/or employees making contributions on a regular basis over a long period to a superannuation Fund. Generally, individuals under the age of 65 years are eligible to contribute to Superannuation. Unsupported persons may also be eligible to contribute to superannuation and claim a tax deduction up to the relevant limits. An unsupported person is classified as an individual whose employment income is less than 10% of their adjusted total income *. The Fund holds the contributions in trust for the Member and invests the contributions with the aim of generating an investment return to supplement the contributions made to the Fund. These assets are then used to provide benefits to Members, usually when they retire or suffer a serious disability, or to a Member s family or estate if the Member dies. The Government taxes superannuation savings at concessional rates if the Fund complies with certain conditions. What is a Self-Managed Superannuation Fund (SMSF)? Australians can choose to contribute their personal superannuation contributions to an independently managed superannuation Fund or to an SMSF. SMSFs (also known as DIY Funds) perform the same role as other Funds, by investing contributions and making them available to Members on retirement. The difference is, generally, that the Members (maximum 4 Members) of selfmanaged super Funds are also the Trustees of the Fund they control the investment of their contributions and the payment of their benefits. With all Members being Trustees, they are in a position to ensure their interests as Members are protected. For an SMSF to be considered a complying superannuation Fund for the purposes of the Tax Law - and thereby receive concessional taxation treatment - it must first be a regulated superannuation Fund, having complied with Superannuation Law requirements (discussed on page 18). * taxable income, adjusted fringe benefits, tax-free pension or benefits, target foreign income, reportable employer superannuation contributions, total net investment losses less deductible child maintenance expenditure. 17

PART B. bell potter self managed superannuation Fund WHO LOOKS AFTER THE FUND? THE TRUSTEE All superannuation Funds are required to appoint Trustees. Trustees are responsible for ensuring the Fund is properly managed and that it complies with Superannuation Law and other legal obligations. A Trustee of an SMSF must act in accordance with: the superannuation Fund Trust Deed; Superannuation Law; and other general laws, for example those imposed under Tax Law and trust law. Superannuation Law contains covenants that impose minimum requirements on Trustees, and are deemed to be included in the Trust Deed of every Regulated Fund. These covenants reflect the duties imposed on Trustees under trust law in general. Superannuation Law covenants bind Trustees to: act honestly in all matters; exercise the same degree of care, skill and diligence as an ordinary prudent person would exercise when acting on behalf of others; act in the best interest of the Fund Members; keep the assets of the Fund separate from other assets (e.g. the Trustee s personal assets); retain control over the Fund so that the Trustee s powers and functions are not hindered; develop and implement an investment strategy that meets certain standards; develop and implement a management strategy that meets certain requirements for reserves maintained in the Fund; and allow Members access to certain information. Delegating certain responsibilities to service providers Whilst Trustees can engage other people to do certain acts or things on their behalf (e.g. engaging the services of an accountant, superannuation fund administrator, tax agent, investment planner, auditor, etc), they are bound to remain responsible for the Fund. Ultimate responsibility and accountability for running the Fund in a prudent manner and complying with legal requirements lies with the Trustees. Who can be a Trustee? Essentially, anyone over the age of 18 can be a Trustee of a superannuation fund except if they are a disqualified person. An individual is a disqualified person if: at any time, the person has been convicted of an offence involving dishonesty, or at any time, the person has been subject to a civil penalty order under Superannuation Law, or the person is an insolvent under administration (e.g. an undischarged bankrupt); or the regulator has disqualified the person from acting as Trustee. There is a general requirement that each member of a Fund must also be a trustee of the Fund. Additionally, for sole-member Funds an additional trustee can be appointed to meet legal requirements, or the Fund can appoint a corporate trustee of which the member is a Director. Minors Minors (Members under 18 years of age) are considered to be under a legal disability and are unable to act as Trustees of a superannuation fund. Where a minor is to be a Member of an SMSF, the minor s legal personal representative, or parent or guardian if the minor does not have a legal personal representative, can be a Trustee in place of the minor. Legal personal representative A legal personal representative can be a Trustee (or director of a Corporate Trustee) in place of a Member who is under a legal disability or if the representative holds an enduring power of attorney in respect of the Member. Death of a Member A legal personal representative can be a Trustee (or director of a Corporate Trustee) in place of a deceased Member, up until the time that death benefits are paid from the SMSF. Following the death of a member, the SIS Act specifies circumstances in which an entity that does not satisfy basic conditions will still remain a self managed superannuation fund. A fund does not cease to be a SMSF until the earlier of the following times: a. The time an RSE licensee of the fund is appointed; b. Six months after it would so cease to be a self managed superannuation fund. 18

A company would not be permitted to act as Trustee if: a responsible officer of that company is a disqualified person (a responsible officer includes a director, secretary or executive officer); or a receiver, official manager, or provisional liquidator has been appointed to the company; or action has commenced to wind up the company. Who looks after the fund? An SMSF can have either individual Trustees or a Corporate Trustee and must ensure: each Member of the Fund is a Trustee or a director of the trustee company (i.e. Corporate Trustee); no Member of the Fund is an employee of another Member of the Fund, unless those Members are related; and no Trustee, or director of a trustee company, of the Fund receives remuneration for his or her services as a Trustee. (Note: Trustees can receive remuneration for non-trustee services they provide to the Fund in a separate professional capacity). Single Member Fund It is possible to have an SMSF with only one member. If the Single Member Fund has a Corporate Trustee, the Member must: be the sole director of the Trustee company; or be related to the other director of the trustee company and the Member is one of only two directors of that company; or not be an employee of the other director of the trustee company and the Member is one of only two directors of that company. If the single member Fund does not have a Corporate Trustee, the Fund must have two individuals as Trustees. The Member must be the Trustee with: another person who is a relative of the Member; or any other person, provided the Member is not an employee of that person. The sole purpose test Trustees must ensure that the Fund is maintained for the purpose of providing benefits to Members upon their retirement or attainment of age 65, or their dependants or legal personal representative in the case of a Member s death. Certain additional benefits, such as benefits paid on disability or in circumstances of illhealth, are also allowed to be provided. Accepting contributions It is important that Trustees are aware of the standards relating to the acceptance of contributions under Superannuation Law. Please refer to the Contributions section on page 20 for more information. Managing investments A key area of responsibility for Trustees is investment management. The Superannuation Law places certain duties and responsibilities on Trustees when making investment decisions. Core obligations of the Trustees are to protect and increase Member benefits over time for retirement purposes. Paying benefits In contrast to lump sum withdrawals, a Member s pension income withdrawals from a Fund may only be paid in the form of cash (rather than Fund assets), in accordance with the requirements of the Superannuation Law. The payment standards of the Superannuation Law work with the sole purpose test and the legislated preservation rules (regulations regarding the release of Fund assets) to ensure monies in the Fund are only paid to Members in appropriate circumstances. Administrative obligations There are a range of administrative obligations imposed on an SMSF. Trustees are responsible for ensuring these obligations are met. Failure to do so may result in the Trustees being fined and may also jeopardise the Fund s eligibility for tax concessions. Involvement All Members/Trustees are obligated to be involved in the decisionmaking processes of the Fund and share responsibility with the other Members/Trustees for the protection and appropriate investment of the Fund assets. THE AUDITOR The Fund is required to have the financial accounts and statements audited each year by an approved auditor (financial audit). In addition, the Approved Auditor is required to assess the Fund s overall compliance with Superannuation Law (compliance audit). The audit report is required to be completed the day before the Fund is required to lodge its combined income tax and regulatory return and Auditors must provide a certificate to the Trustees stating that the Fund has been audited. Auditors are obliged to bring to the attention of Trustees any concerns about the Fund s financial position or the Fund s compliance with Superannuation Law. In some circumstances auditors may be required to inform the Australian Taxation Office of the issue. The Trustees can appoint any Approved Auditor to perform the audits. An Approved Auditor may be a registered company auditor under the Corporations Law or be a member of one of the following bodies: CPA Australia Limited Member. The Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia Member. National Institute of Accountants Member. Association of Taxation and Management Accountants - Member or Fellow. National Tax and Accountants Association Ltd Fellow. super solutions. 19

PART B. bell potter self managed superannuation Fund ABOUT YOUR FUND TYPES OF MEMBER ACCOUNTS Member accounts can be either: Accumulation accounts where contributions are made to accumulate superannuation benefits for retirement; or Pension accounts where benefits are paid from the Fund as income streams. Please see the section entitled Your Benefits on page 26 for more information. RESERVES The Fund may, from time to time, establish reserve accounts for any purpose permitted under Superannuation Law. Any income earned on amounts retained in these reserves will be taxed at the standard superannuation tax rate of 15% irrespective of whether all the Members are in pension phase or not. These reserve accounts must be reviewed annually to determine whether any amounts should be re-distributed from these reserves. Providing the amount allocated for the year is less than 5% of the member s interest in the fund, then the transfer will not be treated as a concessional contribution. This is the 5% fair and reasonable rule. The Trustee must develop and implement a strategy to manage those reserves in accordance with Superannuation Law. NOMINATION OF DEPENDANTS When applying to join the Fund, or at any time, you may make a death benefit nomination. The two available nominations are: A non-binding nomination In the event of your death, the balance of your Member account will be paid to one or more of your Dependants and/or your legal personal representative, in such proportions and such manner (if paying to more than one) as the Trustees determine. In exercising their discretion, the Trustees will have regard to your death benefit nomination, but are not bound by it. Please note that Fund Trustees are not bound by any instructions contained in a will but can take them into account in determining a nonbinding Member nomination payout in the event of death. A binding nomination In the event of your death, the balance of your Member account will be paid to one or more of your Dependants and/ or your legal personal representative in such proportions (if paying to more than one) as you nominate. In order for your nomination to be valid, certain formalities must be met. Care should be taken to ensure that any binding nominations are reviewed regularly to ensure they continue to meet your needs. For example, benefits could be paid to a former spouse if a binding nomination specifying the former spouse was not cancelled at the time of divorce/ separation and he or she continued to qualify as your Dependant. Members can add or change any death benefit nomination at any time by notifying the Trustees in writing. A binding nomination needs to be refreshed every 3 years under superannuation legislation in order to maintain validity. TRUST DEED Member benefits can only be dealt with in accordance with the provisions of the Fund s Trust Deed (as restricted by Superannuation Law). From time to time it will be necessary to amend the Trust Deed to meet changed legislative requirements or Member needs to ensure the Fund remains compliant with Superannuation Law. Any costs to do this will be met by the Fund. Please refer to the section headed Fees and Other Costs on page 11 for details of the fees applicable as at the date of this Disclosure Document. CONTRIBUTIONS Contributions to your Fund can be made at any time by yourself, your spouse, or your employer, provided the contribution is permitted under Superannuation Law. Regular contributions can be made by periodic payments from your nominated bank account. Superannuation Law imposes maximum limits on contributions to your Fund. You may also transfer your existing superannuation entitlements into the Fund. This will enable you to consolidate your superannuation benefits in the one Fund.
