Financial Standard Comments - Tax retirement earnings at flat 15%, says consultant A flat 15% tax on post-retirement investment earnings would solve the problem of lost tax revenue through self-managed superannuation funds (SMSFs), according to Andrew Baker, managing partner at Tria Investment Partners. https://www.financialstandard.com.au/feed/latest?story=42181626 Wed, 13 Aug 2014 13:54:49 +1000 Wed, 13 Aug 2014 13:54:49 +1000 en-AU Copyright 2026 Financial Standard 5 Comment by Darryl Gobbett (Prescott Securities)

re the proposal to tax SMSF earnings at 15%, can we assume the same rate will apply to the earnings in pension phase of the Industry Funds? And why would the tax on realised capital gains be higher in Pension phase than in accumulation phase (at 10%).

Also why are franking credits so much more of an issue for SMSF than the other types of funds?

Are we serious about discriminating between funds, individuals etc as to who gets the benefit of the franking credit?
