Technical Summit 2023

Australian’s love superannuation due to the tax concessional treatment, and that is more so when they then have the opportunity to access their benefits for retirement, one of the core purposes of superannuation. The benefits paid from superannuation on retirement are Pensions and Lump-Sums or a combination, including the same on Death / Disability.

In this workshop, with worked case studies, Jemma covers the different types of benefit payments, including the SIS and tax implications, Transfer Balance Cap considerations, dealing with benefits on death, and the implications of the new $3 million tax.
