Being a trustee of a self managed super fund brings with it responsibilities. There are many important factors to be considered to ensure that the ongoing administration of the fund is adequate.

This paper covers some important factors that should be considered when using a superannuation fund to accumulate retirement wealth. Topics covered include:

  • trustee deadlocks
  • what happens when trustees die - interaction with wills
  • powers of attorney/members suffering legal incapacity
  • what do you do when members/trustees go overseas?
  • non lapsing binding death benefit nominations
  • death benefit disputes
