Funded Activity Summary

The adequacy and sustainability of self-managed superannuation funds: Governance, performance, asset allocation, fee structure and compliance. This project will provide research to aid decision makers in policy formation and setting on governance, regulatory and performance issues relating to Self-Managed Superannuation Funds (SMSFs), which now make up the largest proportion of superannuation assets, accounting for over 30% of the total $1.1 trillion of superannuation assets in Australia. Empirically driven advice to the Government and the general community on these issues is of substantial importance given the need for retirees to be self-financing and the current adverse conditions experienced in today's financial environment. Research stemming from this project will highlight the value proposition SMSFs may or may not be providing to the superannuation industry.
