As specialists in both Self-Managed Superannuation and personal superannuation, we understand how important retirement savings are. Almost 10% of your hard earned money each year goes into a Superannuation fund for your retirement.
Superannuation goes beyond just “forced retirement savings”. Understanding it’s your money and the way its invested is very important. We assist in providing you a plan to maximize your superannuation so that in retirement you don’t have to worry.
With so many different superannuation options available, it can be complicated, confusing and difficult to decide which superannuation solution is best for you.
Our team can assist you with superannuation and retirement advice. We’ll get to know you and your situation and help you establish and run an SMSF that helps you plan effectively for your retirement goals. We have established a service offering that provides you with the flexibility and control over your SMSF with experts in tax, financial advice and retirement to guide you along the way.
A SMSF is a structure that receives and manages funds and investments on behalf of the members. It has a maximum of four members, all of whom must be trustees (or directors of a corporate trustee). As a Trustee you effectively control the SMSF, the investment strategy and the investments.

Our investment process starts with you. We want to understand your goals – the reason you’re investing. We look at what you are trying to achieve and build a strategy around risk, investment structure and time frame. Goal based investing is proven by research to improve investment outcomes by encouraging optimal behaviour and more precise wealth management.
We understand that no two investors feel the same way about risk. Some take a long view and are unperturbed by the market’s ups and downs. Others are more cautious but are willing to take calculated risks. By learning about your goals and building a roadmap, we’ll guide you to an asset allocation that reflects your risk tolerance as well as your objectives.
Life and the financial markets have something in common: change. That’s why it’s essential to follow a well-defined process. We’ll monitor everything that can affect your investments — and we’ll make adjustments as needed.
We understand that everyone is different, which is why we’ll build an investment solution that ensures you are on the right track to meet your goals. We’ll meet with you regularly and offer monthly investment insights to ensure you understand not only the markets but how they affect your investments as we keep you on track to achieving your long term goals.
The EFS Strategic Investment Team has extensive experience in macroeconomics, market analysis, and risk and security selection across a wide range of investments. The team is run by our Chief Investment Officer, Brad Matthews, who has over 25 years’ experience in devising investment strategies for clients ranging from SMSF’s to high net worth individuals.
Our Investment Team meets regularly to assess opportunities and risks across global markets, and set appropriate asset allocations and investment strategies for our clients. They look beyond cash and shares to ensure an array of choices are available to complement both your existing portfolio and the dynamic nature of changing markets.
Note: These Investment Portfolios are for illustrative purposes only. The amounts of funds that your adviser will recommend will be determined after your situation has been fully assessed and elements such as your tolerance to risk and income / cash flow requirements are considered.
