Hi Clancy and Tanya! Warren here from Loudon Private Wealth, presenting to you your personalised video Statement of Advice today. My authorising licensee and contact details are on the screen now, should you wish to reach out to me at any time. Okay, lets get right into it.
Same as Warren Scene 1
You are both in your early 40s and have a son. You are both working and have recently purchased your own home in Maroubra. You've come to me seeking advice in relation to reviewing your insurance, superannuation and investment options.
Show middle aged couple 40yo with a young boy around 10yo. Then show all of them again with a house next to a beach. Then in bottom row, show three images: superannuation building with label, insurance shield with label, and investment portfolio image from asset dictionary with label "Investments", all of them with magnifying glass.
We therefore agreed that the scope of my advice will cover insurance, superannuation platforms, and personally held investments. Your first goal is for Clancy to investigate whether salary sacrificing is a viable strategy in order to minimise tax. Your second goal is to review your existing super funds to ensure it remains suitable and continues to meet your needs. Your third goal is to ensure that you and your family are protected in the event of any serious illness or major injury. And finally, Tanya would like to establish an investment portfolio on behalf of your son in order to help build wealth.
Scope:
Insurance
Superannuation (platform)
Personal Investments
Goals:
1. Minimise tax via a salary sacrificing strategy for Clancy
2. Review existing super funds for suitability
3. Review insurances for suitability and coverage
4. Establish investment portfolio in Tanya's name on behalf of Oscar to build wealth
My first advice is for Clancy to enter into an agreement with his employer to salary sacrifice up to the concessional contribution cap of $30,000 per annum. We also recommend splitting 50% of the contributions made each year to Tanya's new netwealth Super Accelerator account, which I'll explain further in my second advice. Salary sacrificing super will reduce your tax on income by $1,455 and increase your savings in the tax-effective superannuation environment. However please note that you always remain under your $30,000 cap otherwise you will incur penalty tax, and please note that contributions are taxed within the super fund at 15%.
My second advice is for both of you to rollover your respective Unisuper and Australian Retirement Trust accounts to newly established netwealth Super Accelerator Core accounts and arrange with your employer to have future contributions directed into the recommended funds. I also recommend you invest the underlying funds as follows, which will result in your investments being aligned to your confirmed risk profile. Finally in relation to super, I recommend you establish binding non-lapsing death benefit nominations within the new netwealth Super Accelerator accounts, nominating each other as the sole beneficiary. Dealing with super benefits on death is complex. We recommend that you speak with your solicitor to ensure that your wishes are appropriately reflected in your estate plan. Following my advice will reduce superannuation fees by $390 and $361 for both your funds, will result in a more tax-effective super fund as you do not pay capital gains tax unless you sell an asset, and netwealth also returns any tax credits earned by your super fund back to you on an annual basis. However please note that we cannot guarantee that the recommended funds will give you better returns than your existing fund. Further, the rollover process may incur transaction costs and taxes in the transfer of funds, and due to being out of the market for a period of time, you may miss out on lost capital growth.
My third advice is for you both to take out the following insurances. Clancy's premiums are $1,422 per annum from cash flow and $3,385 from superannuation, while Tanya's premiums are $503 from cash flow and $4,912 from superannuation. We recommend a stepped premium structure as the lower initial cost limits the impact on your cash flow during the earlier years of the policy, allowing you to focus on meeting more immediate needs. Following my advice will ensure that the amounts of cover will cover your existing debt, pay for any medical ongoing costs of care, as well as provide sufficient money to support you and your family. However, please note that the premiums may change subject to underwriting, and please ensure you do not cancel any existing insurances until the recommended ones are in force.
My fourth advice is for Tanya to invest an upfront $2,000 in a Generation Life investment bond as a trustee for your son, followed by annual contributions of 125% of the previous year. We recommend you invest these funds in the Vanguard High Growth Portfolio. Finally, I recommend that Clancy be nominated as the beneficiary under the bond in the event of the death of the life insured, as this was your preference. Following my advice will result in a long term tax-effective investment as the intention is for the investment is your son's future. Please note however that if the funds are withdrawn prior to 10 years, there may be tax penalties.
My final advice is for you both to urgently seek legal advice to draft and implement a valid Will and Enduring Powers of Attorney as you do not currently have these documents in place. I also recommend that you discuss the appropriateness of establishing Enduring Powers of Guardianship and Advance Healthcare Directive. As you have a child under age 18, I recommend you consider nominating someone you trust as the guardian of your children in the event of your death. I recommend that you engage the services of a qualified legal professional to advise you and prepare this legal document. Please note that if you do not follow this advice, it may be possible for family members (and other eligible dependents) who do not agree with the terms of your Will to lodge a challenge through the courts, so it is important to discuss your full family circumstances as well as your wishes with your solicitor.
