National Conference 2022
Arranging insurance inside an SMSF sound easy, until you consider the potential complexities to be addressed, including:
- which entity or account pays the premium and receives the proceeds and what are the tax consequences,
- how are policies or insurance (compensation) payments moved to super,
- impact of insurance on TBC and TSB,
- purposes for insurance inside super (not just a tick box in the investment strategy !), and
- claiming under TPD or IP insurance and maintaining capacity as a trustee.
By attending this session, participants will develop an understanding of:
- Reasons why insurance would be held or maintained in a SMSF,
- Practical strategies for managing insurance outcomes, and
- Issues to consider to head off problems with insurance proceeds.
