Providing Superannuation Advice

Changes taking place in the accounting industry in relation to the provision of Self Managed Superannuation Fund (SMSF) and superannuation advice mean that from the 1st of July 2016, accountants will not be able to legally advise you about certain SMSFs and superannuation related issues unless they are licensed under an Australian Financial Services (AFS) licence.

In order to ensure we are meeting your expectations in relation to strategic superannuation and SMSF advice and to maintain our service standards, we have joined the SMSF Adviser Network Pty Ltd – an Australian Financial Services Licensee.

 

 

The Trustee for Watts Price Operations Trust T/A Watts Price Accountants (ABN 40 876 591 185) is a Corporate Authorised Representative (No: 1244538) of

SMSF Advisers Network Pty Ltd ABN 64 155 907 681 AFSL No. 430062 www.san.com.au

Being authorised under an AFS licence does require us to adjust the way in which we provide our superannuation advice to you:

  • The information that supports our recommendations (your current situation and objectives) will need to be documented and held on file.
  • Any advice given to you will be presented in writing in a document called a Statement of Advice (SOA).  This will also require your sign off.

While these extra requirements will change the delivery of our service, we have worked to ensure that this will have minimal impact on you while ensuring stringent quality requirements are being adhered to!

We have 1 Authorised Representatives of the SMSF Advisers Network Pty Ltd within our office:

Paul Mackereth – AR number 1292134
