The conversation covers the flood of FY27 planning questions now landing on advisers’ desks, from family trust rules and negative gearing changes to contribution caps, transfer balance caps and the practical reality of Div 296. James and Drew explain what is already changing, what is only proposed, and where people should be planning ahead rather than panicking. They unpack the implications of minimum tax proposals for discretionary trusts, the changing case for property, why payday super matters more than many people realise, and how asset location could become more important for people with larger balances inside and outside super. The episode also answers two practical listener questions: how reversionary pensions work inside an SMSF when Div 296 is in the mix, and whether long service leave is better taken as a lump sum, at full pay or at half pay when retirement is close. If you want a clear, grounded guide to the new financial year and the retirement planning decisions that may matter most over the next 12 months, this episode is a strong place to start.
