It was during a family sojourn to the seaside town of Pescara, Italy, Rob DeDominicis first laid eyes on what would become the harbinger of his future. Andrew McKean writes.
SMSFs are happy with their performance because they have no idea what it is. All reports on the performance of SMSFs are fiction. Ignorance is bliss.
Tony - how disappointing that the trustees of SMSF's that you have spoken to don't know their investment returns. Sounds like their fund administrator/accountant isn't providing them with the tools they need to properly run their fund. It would a shame if the whole SMSF industry is tainted due to the poor service of some accountants.
Tony There seems to be a golden opportunity for you to educate your SMSF client base.
