Trustees should drive SMSF investment strategy

Print Self-managed superannuation fund (SMSF) advisers need to ensure their SMSF investment strategy to clients is not interpreted as an advice document, according to Skeggs Goldstien. The firm’s director and SMSF specialist adviser, Adam Goldstien, spoke at the SMSF Association National Conference and said the investment strategy document needed to be “trustee driven” and the adviser needed to ensure trustees complied with the rules by “guiding, directing, and leading them”. “Investment strategies are not a plan; they’re a strategy.
