SMSF investment: Art collectors subject to stricter guidelines
If you hold artwork, antiques, coins, or other collectibles within your self-managed super fund, then you need to be aware of new rules coming into effect from July 2011.
SMSFs: Collectibles remain OK investments, say all parties
Self-managed super fund trustees who own art within their super fund, or valuable coins or antiques or any other type of collectible investment can now rest easy.
SMSF investment: Art for art’s sake
In May 2010, the Cooper Review (also known as the Super System Review) flagged that it intends to recommend that SMSFs be forbidden from investing in collectibles and personal-use assets; such as, art, jewellery, exotic cars, yachts, antiques, race horses and wine.
