Q: How often should I review my super strategy?

At least annually, and also after major life changes (new job, business changes, property purchase, relationship changes) or when markets move sharply.

Superannuation Advice That Connects to Your Bigger Plan

Super is often your largest long-term asset outside the family home, yet many people leave it on autopilot. At Scion Private Wealth, we provide superannuation advice Brisbane clients can rely on, helping you make confident decisions about contributions, investment options, insurance, and how your super fits into your overall wealth strategy.

Our super financial advisors take a practical, goals-based approach. That means your super strategy is not created in isolation, but aligned with your income, tax position, retirement goals, and family priorities.

Why Super Advice Matters

Super is one of the most powerful long-term wealth tools Australians have, but it is also easy to neglect because it feels set-and-forget. The reality is that small decisions around contributions, investment options, fees and insurance can compound over time and materially affect the lifestyle you can afford later on.

Good super advice helps you move from “I hope I’m on track” to “I know what I’m building towards”, with a strategy that stays aligned as your income, family life and goals evolve.

Because super is ultimately an investment portfolio, your fund’s performance and risk profile should be managed with the same discipline as the rest of your wealth. Learn more about our approach to investment management.

Super financial advice can help you:

Clarify what you are aiming for

Get your investment mix right

Improve outcomes by reducing friction

Make smarter contribution decisions

Plan ahead for retirement income

Make sure your estate intentions are consistent

How Can Scion Help With Your Superannuation Planning?

Superannuation is not one-size-fits-all. The right approach depends on your income, career stage, tax position, retirement planning and how your wealth is structured outside super. That is why our solutions are designed to give you clarity and control — whether you are refining your existing fund, building a smarter contribution strategy, or exploring an SMSF as part of a broader plan.

1) Superannuation Strategy

Realign Your Super Strategy with Your Goals

Your super should be working towards a specific outcome, not simply “growing” in the background. We help you review how your super is currently structured, then build a strategy that supports what you are actually trying to achieve.

Super Strategy support may include:

Fund and investment option review (fees, performance, features)

Contribution strategies aligned with cash flow and tax priorities

Insurance inside super (reviewing cover and suitability)

Retirement pathway planning (how and when income may be drawn)

Beneficiary nominations and estate alignment (where appropriate)

Speak with a super advisor

2) Establishing a SMSF

Set Up the Right Structure, for the Right Reasons

A Self-Managed Super Fund can offer more control and flexibility, but it also comes with real obligations and complexity. Our role is to help you assess whether an SMSF makes sense for your situation and to guide you through establishing it with the right guardrails in place.

SMSF establishment support may include:

SMSF suitability assessment (costs, time, governance, risks)

Structure and trustee considerations (including corporate trustee discussion)

Investment strategy preparation and implementation planning

Coordinating with your accountant and legal advisers where required

Helping you understand ongoing compliance responsibilities

Discuss SMSF suitability

3) Improve SMSF Performance

Ongoing SMSF Advice That Keeps Your Fund on Track

Once established, the value of an SMSF often comes down to two things: disciplined investment strategy and cost/control management. We provide SMSF advice that focuses on clarity, governance and long-term outcomes.

Ongoing SMSF advice may include:

Portfolio and asset allocation guidance aligned to your goals

Regular reviews and rebalancing where appropriate

Strategy around contributions, pensions and retirement income planning

Risk management, liquidity planning and documentation support

Coordinating with your accountant on tax reporting and compliance workflows
