FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do I need to have a good knowledge of investments to have a SMSF?
We suggest you have a basic understanding of investments and how they work, however its not essential. It is possible (and many clients do this) to outsource the investment function to a professional.
You will need to prepare and implement an SMSF investment strategy for your SMSF and review it regularly. The investment strategy needs to reflect the purpose and circumstances of your SMSF and consider several factors.

Can I have insurances through my SMSF, like I do in my retail/industry fund?
An SMSF can hold all the insurances a retail / industry super fund can. An SMSF can hold life insurance, Total and Permanent Disability Insurance (TPD) for “any occupation” and Income Protection Insurance. It is important to consider your insurances will align with a condition of release and that they are not “trapped” inside the SMSF when you need them.
SMSF trustees are legally obliged to consider insurances, as per their Investment Strategy. This however, does not mean insurance is compulsory, merely it needs to be considered. The SMSF trustees may deem that appropriate cover is held outside the SMSF.
We suggest you seek advice from an insurance professional when determining appropriate cover.
Is there anyone who can’t have a SMSF?
In most cases all members of a SMSF must be a trustee or a director of the trustee company. Anyone 18 years and over and not under a legal disability (i.e. Mental impairment or bankruptcy) can be a trustee unless they are a disqualified person.
A person is disqualified if any of the following apply:
- A person has been convicted of an offence involving dishonesty
- A person has been subject to a civil penalty order under the super laws
- A person is considered insolvent under administration
- A person in an undischarged bankrupt
- Has been disqualified by a regulator
If a person is any of these things, then they will likely be ineligible to be a trustee of a SMSF.
Can I buy property with my SMSF?
Your SMSF can buy any type of property that the trustees feel fits the investment strategy of their SMSF, however it is important to understand the specific rules that apply to owning and using a property that is owned by an SMSF.
This mean you can buy a commercial property, residential property, vacant land, farm land, etc. There are however restrictions with regard to property and SMSF.

Who can help me prepare my strategy for my SMSF?
There is a legal requirement for the trustees to have an investment strategy for an SMSF.
An investment strategy can be for the fund as a whole, or for each member (depending on the risk tolerances of fund members).
An investment strategy is a document that sets out how you plan to achieve the fund’s or member’s investment objectives. There is no prescribed format for an investment strategy (unless your trust deed says so), but it must reflect the purpose and circumstances of the fund and its members. An investment strategy is a fluid document that should be updated whenever circumstances in the fund change and should be reviewed regularly.
The investment strategy should consider such things as diversification of assets, liquidity of the fund’s assets, insurance, the ability of the fund to meet the needs of members (ie. ability to pay a pension) and the ability of the SMSF to discharge its existing and prospective liabilities.
The trustee must prepare the investment strategy, but can take assistance from others, such as an appropriately licensed financial planner.
What can an SMSF invest in?
SMSF members can invest in a way that is often unavailable in most other super funds.
You can hold direct property, listed and unlisted shares, artwork and other exotic or not-so-common investments.
The Sole Purpose (or core purpose) of your SMSF must be to provide retirement benefits to the members of the fund on retirement or benefits to a deceased members dependant or estate on the death of a member.
Investment rules for SMSFs are in place and regulated by the ATO to limit the risks that SMSF fund members are exposed to, to maintain / maximise retirement savings.
