On the Horizon: Navigating Future Strategic Opportunities

National Conference 2025

This plenary explores the evolving landscape of SMSFs, focusing on the emerging challenges and opportunities for SMSF members and the professionals who advise them. Join Meg in a deep dive into some of her favourite strategies with, of course, her usual modelling and variations. 

What does an increase in the transfer balance cap from 1 July 2025 mean for both 2024/25 and 2025/26? How can accountants and advisers weigh up decisions about starting pensions and making contributions in a changing environment. Are there any “forgotten” strategies we should revisit? Or people who could benefit from them that we’ve not thought of?

This is a forward-looking session designed to help SMSF professionals stay ahead.

By watching this session, you will be able to:

  • Gain insight to analyse the implications of the increased transfer balance cap from 1 July 2025 for future SMSF strategic planning.
  • Learn how to evaluate strategies for starting pensions and making contributions in response to a shifting regulatory and economic landscape.
  • Identify opportunities to apply overlooked or emerging SMSF strategies to maximize member benefits.
