SISFA Roles

The role of SISFA

To be the national voice for self-managed independent superannuation funds and to develop their role in Australia's retirement income system. An important part of SISFA's charter is to represent the needs and interests of SMSF trustees to both the Government and the Regulators, and to increase the level of education and awareness of SMSF issues at the trustee level. Through an exclusive arrangement with one of Australia’s leading insurers, SISFA also protects Trustees by automatically insuring them against Trustee administrative penalties and audit costs incurred during tax and compliance audits.
