The number of trustees that are likely to leave their SMSF has doubled from last year, a recent industry report has found.

The date for a Federal Court hearing to determine if the DomaCom fractional property offering represents one trust only has been set, with the matter to be decided on in late November.

Class has announced Christopher Cuffe for election to its board as an independent non-executive director.

Fractional property investment firm DomaCom is one step closer to delivering its senior equity release (SER) product after a decision by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) to approve conditional relief, which allows the product to be delivered to market.

SuperConcepts today announced the appointment of Amanda Johnston-Pell to its board, bringing a wealth of strategic marketing, business transformation and innovation experience to the SMSF firm’s board.

Martin Currie has revealed it has based its ethical income fund on environmental, social and governance (ESG) screens suggested by clients, in order to embed client values into the offering rather than dictating ethics from the top down.

Foreign exchange and contracts-for-difference (CFD) trading platform provider easyMarkets is looking to attract more SMSF clients through education programs and networks informing trustees how these instruments can be used properly to enhance their portfolio returns.

The volume of reporting by SMSFs under the ATO’s transfer balance account report (TBAR) regime could rise by 340 per cent, placing SMSFs and practitioners at risk of submerging under the ‘second wave’ of super reforms, according to the latest analysis from Class.
