and entering Centuria New Zealand.
With 1 July 2017 fast approaching you may have a number of clients who are impacted by the changes to concessional and non-concessional superannuation contributions. Investment Bonds are a simple, flexible investment structure worth considering for clients who may be locked out of making superannuation contributions post 1 July 2017.
In preparing for the end of the financial year, the following checklist may be beneficial in reviewing clients for pre and post 1 July.
What are the client investment objectives and timeframes?
What is their risk profile?
What are the risks in the strategy presented to the client and how does the client feel about each risk?
Is the strategy flexible enough to deal with unforeseen circumstances?
Does the recommended strategy offer simplicity and ease of management?
What are the cash flow and taxation implications of the strategy?
What are the impact on Centrelink and Veterans’ affairs payments
What are the options within the strategy for estate planning?
