Superannuation


Getting it right for peace of mind

 

Superannuation is a key element of most people’s retirement planning and wealth strategy so it is essential to get it right. As a member of Count Financial we can give you personalised advice and guide you through the maze of recent changes to superannuation law.

There are new laws relating to contributions, tax implications for the amount you have in super, whether capital gains concessions apply and how you can access your money. Super has important implications for personal wealth creation and will most probably be an important part of your estate.

Good advice means peace of mind


Super is a complex area so professional advice is essential to make the most of opportunities and avoid any pitfalls or penalties during your retirement or after your death. Making a few adjustments and adopting some ‘smart super’ strategies early on can make a huge difference in retirement.

As your accounting and taxation advisers we have understanding of your financial affairs and as members of Count Financial we can give you the appropriate advice on which superannuation choice is right for you. Investing in super can also create some tax advantages so depending whether you are employed, self-employed or not currently working, we can help you make the right choices in terms of contributions to achieve your retirement goals.

Superannuation forms a part of most people’s estates when they die.
