Wealth Management
accordion-minusaccordion-plus

Wealth management is the process of defining your investment goals and tailoring financial solutions to help you reach financial freedom. It is the partner of money management.


While the focus of money management is making sure cashflow covers all the essentials of your lifestyle, the aim of wealth management is to use or create excess cashflow to grow your assets and therefore your wealth.


Creating personal wealth requires planning, successful strategy execution and review – and the ongoing advice of a professional adviser who can offer you direct access to all the investment opportunities.


Wealth management continues well into retirement. Indeed, retirement planning is a key focus when creating wealth management strategies. That is, accumulating enough wealth to provide income and financial security in retirement.
Our approach


Your dedicated Morgans adviser will take you through the wealth management planning process, implement your strategies and help you make the most of all opportunities.


This wealth management process helps you set short- and long-term goals and use a range of investment strategies to achieve those goals.


Strategies are developed around the principles of saving tax, choosing the right investment structures, minimising risk, personal insurance and generating a large-enough asset base to provide you with financial security.


The strategies to save tax involve structuring salary, superannuation, investments and debt. Risk is minimised through the diversification of investments and monitoring portfolio performance

Superannuation Advice
accordion-minusaccordion-plus

Superannuation is arguably the most tax-effective method of saving for your retirement. For many of us, it is the largest asset we have, apart from our homes.

With a variety of contribution options, superannuation can be a complex area for the uninformed.

It's important to form a strategy to make the most of the tax concessions, financial incentives and rebates. This will help to ensure your superannuation savings provide a comfortable standard of living in retirement.

Strategy

By forming a strategy, you may take advantage of:

  • Transition to Retirement (TTR) rules
  • Choice of superannuation
  • Self Managed Superannuation Funds(SMSF)
  • Salary packaging (also known as salary sacrifice)
  • Retirement income streams

How to make contributions
  • Employer Super Guarantee Contributions
  • Employee – Salary sacrifice contributions
  • Salary forfeited as contributions to super instead of taking as taxable income.
  • Employee – Voluntary contributions (after tax)
  • Could be eligible for Government co-contribution payments if other conditions are met.
  • Self employed – deductible contributions or non-deductible contributions
  • Not working and under 65 – (non-deductible)
  • Ability to make deductible contributions will depend on taxable income.
  • Spouse – spouse splitting of spouse contributions, or contributions on behalf of a spouse.

How to enjoy your income in retirement

Your decision about where and how your money is invested in superannuation could increase your income in a number of ways.

By rolling your superannuation money into a pension income stream at or after retirement, you can:

  • generate more tax-effective income
  • receive more generous Centrelink treatment
  • have the flexibility to decide how your assets will be left to your beneficiaries.
  • Account-based pensions are the most common form of superannuation pension. They are specifically derived from superannuation money.

The pension income is paid from the balance of the money remaining in the your superannuation fund each year until it runs out. Payments can commence following full retirement after preservation age, or if you are permanently unable to work due to invalidity, or at age 65 regardless of whether retired or not at that time.

An account-based pension can offer a range of flexible investment options. You can position your investments so they are more effective in meeting income and growth needs in retirement.

This flexibility means control is ultimately retained by you over the level of investment risk and return within the fund.

Self-Managed Super Funds
accordion-minusaccordion-plus

More and more people are realising the advantages of making their own investment decisions and taking control of their retirement strategy.

An increasingly popular way of doing this is by setting up a self managed superannuation fund (SMSF).

An SMSF gives members of the fund control over specific investment choices involving their superannuation. They can tailor their own investment strategies and select specific assets such as listed securities, managed investments, cash and term deposits, international equities, instalment warrants and so on.

How can we help?

Morgans offers a variety of services for SMSFs, including structure, setup, advice, rollovers, investments, administration and compliance.

We have investment advisers who specialise in superannuation and a technical research team that provides updates and support on the latest in superannuation developments.

Our Services
SMSF administration & investment reporting

Our Wealth+ SMSF Solution is an all-encompassing investment administration and SMSF administration service that allows you to take advantage of the flexibility and control of an SMSF, but outsource the work involved in establishing and running your fund.

Your SMSF investments are managed through our Wealth+ Managed Portfolio Service, which provides you with comprehensive reporting on your fund portfolio and investments, in addition to your annual member statement.

Investment reporting

Clients and their accountants can benefit from our Wealth+ Managed Portfolio Service, which is a reporting facility that we offer for investment administration. This service makes investing easier by collecting and recording all investment information/documentation, however SMSF trustees will need to arrange annual administration of the SMSF using an accountant or administrator.

SMSF administration

Our SMSF administration only service provides fund administration without the portfolio administration. Please contact us or your Morgans Balmain adviser to find out more.

More information

If you would like to find out more before contacting one of our advisers, the Morgans technical research team has produced An essential guide to taking control of your super, which provides further detail on SMSFs.
