We highlight its tax benefits, such as contributions taxed at 15% instead of higher marginal rates, potentially saving individuals thousands annually compared to regular savings. However, we note the scheme’s complexity, with restrictions like annual and lifetime caps, making professional advice essential.

    Owning Assets in a Trust

    Welcome back to another episode of the 360 Money Matters Podcast!  In this episode, we discuss the complexities of owning assets in a trust and offer guidance on when it might be beneficial. We address a common question about whether to buy assets individually or through a trust, weighing the pros and cons of each approach. We emphasize that trusts can provide a layer of protection for assets, particularly for business owners concerned about creditors. However, we clarify that trusts are not "bulletproof," especially when it comes to family court proceedings in cases of relationship breakdowns. We also outline different types of trusts, like unit trusts and discretionary family trusts, and explain when each might be more appropriate depending on factors like flexibility and who holds the assets. Get clarity on whether a trust is right for you and gain insights into safeguarding your assets effectively.

    Offset vs. Redraw Account

    Welcome back to another episode of the 360 Money Matters Podcast!  In this episode, we discuss the differences between offset and redraw accounts, key financial tools for managing mortgage payments. We outline how both accounts reduce mortgage interest but differ in terms of flexibility and tax implications. An offset account, linked to a mortgage, allows daily transaction access, providing flexibility and potentially larger tax deductions if the property becomes an investment. In contrast, a redraw account holds excess funds paid toward the mortgage, which can be withdrawn, though with less flexibility and potential tax disadvantages for investment purposes. We also share strategies for utilizing offset accounts to manage lifestyle expenses efficiently, and emphasize the importance of understanding these accounts to maximize tax benefits and avoid costly errors. Tune in to this episode to understand the real differences between offset and redraw accounts, and learn strategies to make these tools work for your financial goals.
