Focus of estate planning Who will receive the SMSF death benefit? In what form – lump sum or pension – will the SMSF benefit be paid? Taxation Of the death benefit payment Of the fund assets required to make the payment Control and management of the SMSF Management of fund assets How does the SMSF death benefit interact with other assets and structures?
A typical SMSF Two individual trustees / members Aged in their early 60s Like to include family members Want better tax planning – could include death benefits Approx. 60% of all SMSF assets in shares and cash Most likely source of asset concentration Trustee / member  B Trustee / member  A SMSF Cash  Australian shares
Trend: binding nominations SMSF Determination SMSFD 2008/3 clarified binding nominations not subject to provisions of SISR 6.17A manner of identifying benefit recipient and proportion of benefit they’ll receive non-lapsing  Ensure governing rules permit this flexibility Donovan v Donovan
Cooper Review and binding nominations “The SIS Act should be amended so that binding death nominations would be invalidated when certain ‘life events’ occur in respect of the member. The current systems used by States and Territories under which testamentary dispositions are invalidated could be used as guidance” “Subject to [this] recommendation being implemented, the SIS Act should be amended so that binding death benefit nominations only have to be reconfirmed every five years” No details on how non-lapsing binding nominations would be affected
Trend: ‘superannuation will’ Binding nominations PLUS specific provisions in governing rules Leave specific super death benefits to specific beneficiaries Provide for executor to take deceased member’s place Pay out specific assets to specific beneficiaries Make conditional or contingent death benefit payments Important to engage other estate planning professions to ensure success Take care with understanding of the term ‘will’
Trend: death benefits to ‘non-traditional’ beneficiaries Interdependency relationship Exists where there’s a close personal relationship and – live together, one/each provides other financial support, OR either or both disabled or because temporarily living apart SCT March 2010 bulletin: ‘temporarily living apart’ requires parties to have lived together at some time Not necessary if separated due to physical, intellectual or psychiatric disability (eg. dementia)* Financial dependency Partial financial dependency sufficient (Noel v Cook) Financial dependence doesn’t equal financial “need” (Faull v SCT) * Refer SCT D09-1005
Taxation, insurance and SMSFs 1. Accumulation or pension interest? Pension Proportions determined on commencement  Accumulation Proportions determined at time of payment $150,000 taxable 50% $150,000 tax-free  50% $150,000 taxable 50% $150,000 tax-free  50% $1,000,000 insurance proceeds received $1,000,000 insurance proceeds received $1,150,000 taxable 88.5% $150,000 tax-free 11.5%  $650,000 taxable 50% $650,000 tax-free 50%
Taxation, insurance and SMSFs 2. Untaxed element ATO ID 2010/76 clarifies that a lump sum death benefit will include an untaxed element where the benefit includes life insurance proceeds and a tax deduction has been claimed for: life insurance premiums or  for a future benefit liability Not necessary to claim a deduction: In every income year, or In the year in which the death benefit is paid Consider taxation impact of any death benefits paid to non-dependent beneficiaries Additional insurance cover may be needed Rollover any other super benefits with longer service periods
Anti-detriment and SMSFs Anti-detriment benefits in SMSF may be funded out of a reserve Amount allocated out of reserve to increase death benefit Allocation will count to deceased member’s concessional cap Example Tom is age 55 with 20 years service $600,000 super balance, all taxable component, all non-preserved Tom is the only member of his SMSF How can Tom maximise the death benefit paid to his surviving adult children?
Anti-detriment and SMSFs # Using formula in ATOID 2007/219 * Assumes 9% SG contributions on $100,000 salary, $50,000 concessional cap and 31.5% excess contributions tax
Control and management of SMSFs Graph 1 – an older population of SMSFs means an increasing likelihood of the SMSF making a death benefit payment  Graph 2 - the death or mental incapacity of a trustee means some form of restructuring of the fund and its assets will be required. Graph 3 – the prevalence of mental incapacity through dementia in an ageing population. Without proper planning restructuring of an SMSF becomes difficult
Management of fund assets 1. Preserve fund assets following death Avoids: Selling an asset when not desirable to do so Incurring unexpected valuation and transactions costs Triggering a capital gains event Possible strategies: Pay and income stream benefit supported by the asset Cash contribution by beneficiary plus ‘asset swap’ Non-member benefit life insurance policy plus ‘asset swap’ In-specie lump sum death benefit in whole or part
Management of fund assets 2. Capital gains tax, exempt current pension income and the death of a member Tax exemption on income from assets supporting pensions may be extinguished on the death of the last member Requires liability to pay a pension death benefit to avoid CGT Refer: ATO ID 2004/688  National Tax Liaison Group Superannuation Sub-committee discussions ATO Priority Technical Issue and possible ruling
Management of fund assets 2. Capital gains tax, exempt current pension income and the death of a member, continued Strategy: turnover fund assets Refresh cost base without undertaking ‘wash sales’ Strategy: offset taxable income from gain with deduction that arises by paying an anti-detriment payment Strategy: offset taxable income from gain by claiming a deduction for future benefit liability Eg. 55 year old with $420,000 balance and $600,000 death cover could result in a deduction of over $290,000
Management of fund assets 3. Limited recourse borrowing and estate planning Many commercial borrowing arrangements require fund assets to generate a threshold level of income Death of a fund member and need to pay a death benefit may require asset sales that lead to an inability to generate this income Strategy: SMSF trustees obtain non-member benefit life insurance cover over each member  Provides funds to pay out SMSF’s loan Creates a fund reserve
SMSF estate planning in context Good estate planning for SMSFs means understanding: It’s not only about super death benefits paid from the SMSF The interaction of the SMSF, its assets and other assets held by the member The provisions of the member’s will  The future of the SMSF itself

  • 3. Focus of estate planning Who will receive the SMSF death benefit? In what form – lump sum or pension – will the SMSF benefit be paid? Taxation Of the death benefit payment Of the fund assets required to make the payment Control and management of the SMSF Management of fund assets How does the SMSF death benefit interact with other assets and structures?
  • 4. A typical SMSF Two individual trustees / members Aged in their early 60s Like to include family members Want better tax planning – could include death benefits Approx. 60% of all SMSF assets in shares and cash Most likely source of asset concentration Trustee / member B Trustee / member A SMSF Cash Australian shares
  • 5. Trend: binding nominations SMSF Determination SMSFD 2008/3 clarified binding nominations not subject to provisions of SISR 6.17A manner of identifying benefit recipient and proportion of benefit they’ll receive non-lapsing Ensure governing rules permit this flexibility Donovan v Donovan
  • 6. Cooper Review and binding nominations “The SIS Act should be amended so that binding death nominations would be invalidated when certain ‘life events’ occur in respect of the member. The current systems used by States and Territories under which testamentary dispositions are invalidated could be used as guidance” “Subject to [this] recommendation being implemented, the SIS Act should be amended so that binding death benefit nominations only have to be reconfirmed every five years” No details on how non-lapsing binding nominations would be affected
  • 7. Trend: ‘superannuation will’ Binding nominations PLUS specific provisions in governing rules Leave specific super death benefits to specific beneficiaries Provide for executor to take deceased member’s place Pay out specific assets to specific beneficiaries Make conditional or contingent death benefit payments Important to engage other estate planning professions to ensure success Take care with understanding of the term ‘will’
  • 8. Trend: death benefits to ‘non-traditional’ beneficiaries Interdependency relationship Exists where there’s a close personal relationship and – live together, one/each provides other financial support, OR either or both disabled or because temporarily living apart SCT March 2010 bulletin: ‘temporarily living apart’ requires parties to have lived together at some time Not necessary if separated due to physical, intellectual or psychiatric disability (eg. dementia)* Financial dependency Partial financial dependency sufficient (Noel v Cook) Financial dependence doesn’t equal financial “need” (Faull v SCT) * Refer SCT D09-1005
  • 9. Taxation, insurance and SMSFs 1. Accumulation or pension interest? Pension Proportions determined on commencement Accumulation Proportions determined at time of payment $150,000 taxable 50% $150,000 tax-free 50% $150,000 taxable 50% $150,000 tax-free 50% $1,000,000 insurance proceeds received $1,000,000 insurance proceeds received $1,150,000 taxable 88.5% $150,000 tax-free 11.5% $650,000 taxable 50% $650,000 tax-free 50%
  • 10. Taxation, insurance and SMSFs 2. Untaxed element ATO ID 2010/76 clarifies that a lump sum death benefit will include an untaxed element where the benefit includes life insurance proceeds and a tax deduction has been claimed for: life insurance premiums or for a future benefit liability Not necessary to claim a deduction: In every income year, or In the year in which the death benefit is paid Consider taxation impact of any death benefits paid to non-dependent beneficiaries Additional insurance cover may be needed Rollover any other super benefits with longer service periods
  • 11. Anti-detriment and SMSFs Anti-detriment benefits in SMSF may be funded out of a reserve Amount allocated out of reserve to increase death benefit Allocation will count to deceased member’s concessional cap Example Tom is age 55 with 20 years service $600,000 super balance, all taxable component, all non-preserved Tom is the only member of his SMSF How can Tom maximise the death benefit paid to his surviving adult children?
  • 12. Anti-detriment and SMSFs # Using formula in ATOID 2007/219 * Assumes 9% SG contributions on $100,000 salary, $50,000 concessional cap and 31.5% excess contributions tax
  • 13. Control and management of SMSFs Graph 1 – an older population of SMSFs means an increasing likelihood of the SMSF making a death benefit payment  Graph 2 - the death or mental incapacity of a trustee means some form of restructuring of the fund and its assets will be required. Graph 3 – the prevalence of mental incapacity through dementia in an ageing population. Without proper planning restructuring of an SMSF becomes difficult
  • 14. Management of fund assets 1. Preserve fund assets following death Avoids: Selling an asset when not desirable to do so Incurring unexpected valuation and transactions costs Triggering a capital gains event Possible strategies: Pay and income stream benefit supported by the asset Cash contribution by beneficiary plus ‘asset swap’ Non-member benefit life insurance policy plus ‘asset swap’ In-specie lump sum death benefit in whole or part
  • 15. Management of fund assets 2. Capital gains tax, exempt current pension income and the death of a member Tax exemption on income from assets supporting pensions may be extinguished on the death of the last member Requires liability to pay a pension death benefit to avoid CGT Refer: ATO ID 2004/688 National Tax Liaison Group Superannuation Sub-committee discussions ATO Priority Technical Issue and possible ruling
  • 16. Management of fund assets 2. Capital gains tax, exempt current pension income and the death of a member, continued Strategy: turnover fund assets Refresh cost base without undertaking ‘wash sales’ Strategy: offset taxable income from gain with deduction that arises by paying an anti-detriment payment Strategy: offset taxable income from gain by claiming a deduction for future benefit liability Eg. 55 year old with $420,000 balance and $600,000 death cover could result in a deduction of over $290,000
  • 17. Management of fund assets 3. Limited recourse borrowing and estate planning Many commercial borrowing arrangements require fund assets to generate a threshold level of income Death of a fund member and need to pay a death benefit may require asset sales that lead to an inability to generate this income Strategy: SMSF trustees obtain non-member benefit life insurance cover over each member Provides funds to pay out SMSF’s loan Creates a fund reserve
  • 18. SMSF estate planning in context Good estate planning for SMSFs means understanding: It’s not only about super death benefits paid from the SMSF The interaction of the SMSF, its assets and other assets held by the member The provisions of the member’s will The future of the SMSF itself
