Uniquely designed to address issues impacting both the Self-Managed Superannuation (SMSF) and large fund sectors, this specialist conference features two dedicated learning streams designed specifically for tax professionals working in these areas.
This exceptional program features leading superannuation tax experts with the essential blend of knowledge and experience in the practical application of the laws. Issues to be address include the latest on contributions, pensions, investments, governance, the latest on the regulatory environment plus an overview of the current economic outlook domestically and globally.
Held over two full days, the program brings together regulators and leading practitioners from the legal, accounting, audit, and financial advisory services fields of the industry to discuss all of the latest tax issues across the ever-changing superannuation landscape. One of the great hallmarks of this event is the interaction and discussion between audience and presenters – always informed and insightful - the attendees are just as big a part of this event as the speakers themselves!
This year the National Superannuation Conference will be held in Melbourne at Crown Melbourne. It’s a great opportunity to return to in person events and reconnect with colleagues and peers from across the profession.
Our specialist conferences are designed to allow delegates the time to enjoy robust technical discussions with colleagues and incorporate several opportunities throughout for attendees to mingle with peers and presenters. Each conference program includes dedicated networking functions for attendees to connect with like-minded members of the profession and discuss the latest issues in tax and beyond.
