OVERVIEW

SMSF Professionals Day returns in May 2026 with a focused, practical program designed for SMSF practitioners and advisers who need timely, actionable guidance on today’s most important superannuation and tax issues. Across a full day of expert-led sessions you’ll get a concise synthesis of legislative and regulatory shifts, hands-on contribution and retirement-phase strategies, and legal clarity on death benefit control — all translated into clear adviser actions you can use with clients straight away.

This year’s agenda highlights several anticipated and emerging themes: navigating recent and forecast policy and ATO developments that affect contribution acceptance and concession strategies, tactical approaches to maximise exempt current pension income and transfer balance cap use, legal control strategies on member death (including enduring powers of attorney and successor director considerations) and broader tax changes outside super that will shape client wealth accumulation. Sessions are delivered by senior Accurium educators and external experts – including Mark Ellem, Jason Hurst, Anthony Cullen, Laura Hanrahan and Lee‑Ann Hayes – and conclude with an integrated panel applying the day’s content to real-world case studies and an extended audience Q&A.
