Wondering how to protect your Super?  Want to make sure it’s going to look after you when you retire?

Superannuation is one of the major retirement strategies for Australians.  The Australian government has structured it for the purpose of enabling Aussies to utilise a finance funding system that will provide them with income when they have finished their working years. When you retire, your superannuation may be your largest asset other than your home.

That’s why it’s important for you to make sure your existing super is protected and your future retirement income is maximized so that you can enjoy a comfortable retirement.

You may be wondering how your super works with your other financial assets, your estate and succession plans or even your insurance.  Intellichoice Financial Planning will provide you with a thorough understanding of how every aspect of your financial plan can complement the other.

Did you know there are substantial tax breaks with superannuation?  That’s right!  The Australian legislation has created some significant tax benefits for superannuation.

In the majority of cases you can choose how you would like your money invested by your super fund through the investment options.  Even if you don’t choose the options, your money is invested in a default investment option.  This method means that your money is going into a suite of assets.  Your investments are spread across a mix of higher and lower risk assets.

Without having the expertise of a financial planner, you run a high risk of ‘shoot and miss’ approaches without really knowing how to take advantages of the super strategies that will help you make the most money and protect what you have.  At Intellichoice, we take the blindfold off and empower you to see clearly what you need to do with your superannuation.
