            • Taxation may apply depending on your age.

            • It’s a decision tree approach to help you achieve what you’re looking to achieve – seek advice if you need help.
            • Understand what your fund does in the event of your death. Not all funds are the same. Some funds are better than others, and some funds are horrible. 
            • Some funds for example don’t offer a pension option, which limits your options.
            • Remember superannuation is not controlled by your will.
            • Remember binding nominations can lapse.
            • How can money come out to adult kids (a non-dependent child) – can you use a recontribution strategy to reduce tax or transfer money to your Estate to control the distribution?
            • There might be also reasons why you don’t direct it to your estate, eg if you have a blended family. 
            • Luke shares his top tips thinking about super death benefit pensions.

                • The time frame of a term deposit locks you out of future rate rises.
                • In the current market, we want short durations – time periods – so we make the most of likely future interest rate rises.
                • When interest rates get to the top of the cycle, we should think about using longer durations for our fixed interest investments.
                • ‘Safe’ is a relative term – even in regard to bonds.
                • What are interest rates likely to do going forward?
                • Risk and time frame matters – even with fixed interest investments. 
                • Government bonds and corporate bonds also examples of fixed interest investments.
