All members must be trustees (or directors, if there is a corporate trustee) and are responsible for decisions made about the fund and compliance with relevant laws. Set up costs and annual running expenses can be high, so it’s most cost-effective if you have a large balance.

“Since our announcement of entering the SMSF space, we have gained a lot of interest from our members and the general public wanting to invest into cryptocurrency using their super,”
