Superannuation and Retirement Planning
Bailey Capital Management offers a full range of superannuation
options for our clients from Mastertrusts with Managed Funds
through to Self Managed Superannuation Funds. This flexibility
enables us to tailor the right superannuation and retirement plan
for each client. A self managed superannuation fund may be suitable
in the longer term once a suitable “nest egg” has been established.
In the meantime Bailey Capital Management is able to establish a
superannuation plan and investment matched to the savings and
investment goals of the client.
One of our key client groups is the “baby boomers” (born between
1946 and 1962) who are at a stage in life where they have retired
or are seriously thinking about it. A key role we play is to assist
this group to transition into retirement using the most effective
superannuation strategy. Many of these individuals have built up
significant superannuation assets and don’t want to place all of
these savings at risk trying to reap a short-term gain. Our
approach is to ensure our clients have an investment strategy tied
to their needs and risk profile.
Superannuation is a concessionally taxed structure and long-term
savings vehicle. Its purpose is specifically to build up funds and
make provision for retirement. The Federal Government's rules via
the Superannuation Guarantee mean that most working individuals
have a minimum level of super contributions made on their behalf by
their employers. In addition there are additional tax
deductions and rebates available to make saving via superannuation
attractive.
Advantages of Superannuation
- A superannuation fund pays tax at the rate of 15% on income and
10% capital gains tax on assets held beyond 12 months.
Depending on the underlying assets held within the fund, these
savings may be increased even further because of credits that may
be due.
- This is of enormous benefit to the individual whose marginal
tax rate outside of superannuation may range between 15% to
45%. With lower tax payable within the superannuation
environment, this enables the opportunity to significantly increase
returns over time.
- Superannuation is simple to set up and use with all
administration, legislative requirements and annual returns
prepared for you.
- Usually able to access very competitive rates of life and
income replacement insurance within superannuation where premiums
payable maybe salary sacrificed or in some cases, tax
deductible
- Able to make un-deducted contributions that do not attract the
15% contributions tax
- You can make additional contributions on behalf of yourself or
your spouse.
