The accountants exemption expires on the 1st July 2016 and accountants will be breaking the law if they provide advice on SMSF’s without an AFSL.
“From 1 July 2016, accountants must hold a limited AFSL or be an authorised representative of a licence-holder or licensee in order to provide financial product advice on self-managed superannuation funds,” said ASIC.
“This follows a three-year transition period that commenced on 1 July 2013”, said ASIC.
