Are you looking for SMSF accountants in Melbourne?

A Self-Managed Super Fund will give you greater flexibility and control over the investment strategy of your superannuation. However, being an SMSF trustee comes with the responsibility to make sure that extensive compliance and regulation are being met.

Our Self-Managed Super Fund accountants specialise in taking away the burden of SMSF administration so that you can focus on what matters. We provide expert assistance with SMSF set up, financial statements, SMSF tax returns and audit recommendation.

For a free consultation with our SMSF administrators, give us a call or come in for a chat at our Mount Waverley, Port Melbourne or Chadstone offices.

SMSF Set Up

Looking to start a Self-Managed Super Fund but don’t know where or how to start? If a registered financial planner has provided you with a Statement of Advice, we can help with your SMSF set up and handle the time-consuming administration requirements.

Financial Statements & Compliance

As a trustee of a Self-Managed Super Fund, it’s easy to drown in the many complex regulations and hurdles that are requested by the ATO. Our SMSF accountants will sift through the complexity and help you understand your obligations, taking the stress of annual compliance off your shoulders. We’ll also prepare all necessary financial statements which include: Balance Sheet, Profit & Loss, Notes to the Financial Statements, Annual Trustee Minutes, Member Statements

SMSF Tax Returns

Doing your individual tax returns can be complicated, let alone when you’re doing them for a Self-Managed Super Fund. For the SMSF accounting team, it’s our bread and butter. Let us take care of your SMSF tax returns while you take care of… literally anything else.

Auditor Recommendation

Your SMSF must be audited each year by an auditor independent to both the fund and the SMSF accountant or administrator. We’ll provide you with recommendations for third-party auditors to make the auditing process as pain-free for you as possible.

Self Managed Super Funds (SMSF) FAQs

We can only help if a Statement of Advice is provided by a registered financial planner. We are not able to provide financial or investment advice for your SMSF.

An SMSF provides greater flexibility and control in terms of your  investments, putting you in the drivers seat of your retirement plan. Potentially, this can mean your retirement portfolio outperforms a traditional superannuation fund.

The starting price is typically $1,500, however it will depend on the complexity of the SMSF.

The concessional tax rate of 15% typically applies, just like in other superannuation funds.
