Trustees are required to be fully aware of their responsibilities and should ensure they are up to date in their knowledge. A website has been set-up to assist trustees to gain an understanding of their responsibilities and is a useful tool to explore, particularly before signing the Trustee’s Consent Form required for new SMSF’s. There is a link to the website below:
