Self-Managed Super Fund Advice and Administration
As the name suggests, a self-managed super fund is one that the members manage for their own benefit.
Self-managed super funds (SMSFs) are one of the most popular ways for Australians to hold their super benefits. SMSFs allow for maximum control over super benefits, which in turn means that super benefits are managed in ways that complement all other elements of a financial plan. This includes, of course, your estate planning (super benefits are not generally subject to your will and therefore you need to make specific arrangements for the posthumous management of super benefits).
Our comprehensive SMSF service ranges from establishing a new SMSF, to managing contributions into and investments by new and existing funds, to ensuring that the fund complies with the various aspects of super law to which it is subject. We can also assist you to utilise your SMSF to optimise your life insurance arrangements.
Max Reinhardt
Financial and Mortgage Adviser
Max started in the finance and lending industry in 2000 and specifically financial advice in 2004 after attaining a Bachelor of Economics Honours degree at The University of Sussex, UK before settling in Australia later that year.
Max has never stopped studying as he is always looking at ways he can better assist his clients and has studied many courses in financial advice, lending and technical analysis as he continues to try and stay ahead of his competitors in terms of the knowledge he can share with his clients.
Max has quite a unique philosophy when it comes to investing as he believes the best thing about the market is that you don’t always have to be in it. Contrary to popular belief, his methods have shown that “timing” the market can result in far better results than just “time in” the market.
This has been evidenced with over 100 years of study on the Dow Jones, which has data available dating back to 1910. He has beaten markets significantly during corrections such as the GFC and Covid crash obtaining significant positive returns, whilst markets have fallen between 40-55% approximately. His Facebook page shows a call for the Covid crash 6 months in advance and clients were able to beat the market by circa 85%.
Of course such opportunities do not occur every day, but being able to form read a market does give him an edge over his competitors. His vast technical analysis study and skills can predominantly be credited to the works of W.D. Gann. He is also not afraid to utilise more modern techniques with the assistance of Artificial Intelligence to give him an even bigger advantage.
