Tax Effectiveness

How it Works

When investing in a Fixed Interest Fund, the money is pooled with other investors’ capital and placed into funds that specialise in Australian or international shares, property, fixed interest or cash, which are managed by fund managers. Investors are also able to switch between funds without any capital gains tax implications. The returns these investments earn are taxed in the hands of the provider and the earnings are reported net of tax. The tax on these earnings is set at the current company tax rate of 30 per cent. This is a nominal rate that can be further reduced through franking credits or other offsets.

Because the provider pays the tax, investors don’t need to declare any income in their tax return. Nor do they need to keep any capital gains records. If the investment is held for 10 years or more, there is no additional tax payable on the investment earnings. This is called the 10-year rule. However, if any withdrawals are made before the 10 years is up, the profit – which is the proceeds less the total amounts invested – need to be included in the investor’s assessable income. It will then be taxed at their marginal rate, although any profit that is assessable will receive a 30 per cent tax offset.

How the earnings are treated from a tax point of view depends on when the money is withdrawn. If the funds are accessed within the first eight years, then all the earnings are assessable. If the money is accessed in years eight to nine, then two-thirds of the earnings are assessed, while if they are accessed in the ninth year, then one-third of the earnings is assessed. After the 10th year, all earnings are tax paid and are not assessable.

If the investor’s marginal rate is lower than 30 per cent, they will receive a credit. Investors on higher marginal tax rates pay additional tax. For example, if their marginal tax rate is 36 per cent, they will have to pay 6 per cent tax on the earnings. The other rule that needs to be clearly spelt out to investors is the 125 per cent rule. It states that investors cannot contribute any more than 125 per cent of their previous year’s investment if they want to avoid restarting the 10-year rule. (For tax purposes, the 10-year period is applicable from the start date.)

Key Benefits

How our Fixed Interest Fund can benefit you

While the funds are invested, the product provider pays the tax on the earnings so there is no assessable income to declare. There are also no taxes or duty when transferring the fund to another person and no capital gains tax when the fund is realised or when switching between investment options. This tax benefit is especially useful for investors who want to keep their income under a certain limit to qualify for benefits that are based on taxable income such as the Commonwealth Seniors Health Card

.Having unhindered access to the funds is a key benefit. Investors’ money is not tied up as it is with super as there is no condition of release. The money can also be used for any purpose and withdrawn at any time. There are no work tests or contribution caps; contribution limits are only subject to the 125 per cent rule. A regular savings plan can also be set up to make contributions

Fixed Interest funds are not complicated and require little paperwork. There is also no need to include any details of the fund’s earnings in a tax return. Protection: In the event the investor becomes bankrupt and is the life insured within the fund, the fund is protected from the trustee of bankruptcy. However, any transfers to a Fixed Interest Fund where the intention is to defeat creditors may not offer protection from the trustee.
