In this helpful and engaging conversation, ATO Deputy Commissioner for SMSF Dana Fleming outlines the ATO’s programme of work, including:

  • What constitutes a well diversified fund - and what doesn’t
  • The implications of not lodging your fund’s return on time, and
  • How to get it right and stay in the ATO’s good books.
