SMSF Beneficiary Nominations
It is not well-known or understood that on a Member’s death their superannuation benefits do not automatically form part of their estate. Nor can they be given away by a person’s Will. Most Superannuation Fund Trust Deeds require the Trustee to take into account the Member’s beneficiary nomination. Any person setting up a SMSF should ensure that they put in place a valid death benefit nomination.
