Interested in Setting Up a Self-Managed Super Fund?
Keen to take control of your superannuation? It all starts with your SMSF setup.
Setting up a self-managed super fund (SMSF) can be a powerful way to take control of your superannuation and direct it towards investments of your choice.
As the name suggests, an SMSF is a private super fund that you manage yourself. However, the setup process can be intricate and requires careful planning and compliance. At New Wave, we can simplify this for you. That means you can enjoy the benefits of an SMSF without the hassle of the setup process and complicated compliance.
So whether you’re an individual or part of a group, SMSF setup is easy with our Gold Coast SMSF accountants.
The Benefits of Setting Up an SMSF
Investment Control
An SMSF gives you the power to choose exactly how your superannuation is invested. You’ll be in control, which means you’re not limited to the standard mix of assets offered by industry and retail super funds.
Tax Strategies
With your own SMSF, you can use tax strategies to your advantage. For instance, you can use an SMSF to hold your business premises, which can provide both tax benefits and secure your business location.
Retirement Planning
An SMSF can be a flexible vehicle for retirement planning, allowing you to tailor your super to your specific retirement goals.

Here at New Wave, we can guide you through every step of the SMSF setup process. Our team of expert accountants and financial advisors is well-versed in each phase of the journey.

Registering Your SMSF

Assisting with Rollover from Industry Funds
