Technical Summit 2022
With the results of the federal election now finalised, the previous government’s 2021 Budget announcement of a two year amnesty to commute legacy pensions may now be awash. Even if an amnesty does eventuate, there are many strategies that practitioners can implement now that can greatly benefit clients. The April 2022 legislative changes requiring commutation of certain benefits provide further opportunity for some members to restructure their legacy pensions.
In this session we will use a series of case studies to review:
• Changes to the commutation rules for excess transfer balance amounts – high tide to low tide!
• The issues that arise when clients die – drowning not waving!
• How reserves can be dealt with – swimming with and against the tide!
