Compliant or contentious? Managing and auditing related party transactions

National Conference 2024

It’s not uncommon for SMSFs to transact with related parties. Unfortunately, it’s also not uncommon for things to go wrong leading to adverse tax and super law compliance problems.

Come along to the workshop to discern what can go wrong with complex related party transactions, how your SMSF auditor is likely to approach the situation and what you could do differently next time to avoid scrutiny from the ATO and the application of the non-arms length income (NALI) provisions.
