The group provides a valuable forum for service providers to self-managed superannuation funds, which represent approximately 33% of total superannuation assets, to openly raise and discuss issues and to share experiences relating to any superannuation matter that may concern the members, beneficiaries, trustees and the operation of these funds.
While small funds are the primary focus of the Group, the Group is in a unique position among all ASFA discussion groups in that its participants deal directly with fund members. This member focus assists in identifying important issues that affect all super fund members, not just members of SMSFs.
The Group regularly raises policy issues, including those concerning compliance, taxation, legislation and investment, which affect the superannuation industry as a whole.
