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.
