If you have a self-managed super fund (SMSF) and own an asset outside your super, you may be able to transfer ownership of the asset directly into your fund. You’ll then be taking advantage of the 15% tax on earning
Even though you will probably have to pay tax on the transfer of ownership of the asset (and sometimes stamp duty), the long-term tax benefits may compensate for the short-term liability. If you’re self-employed and can claim a tax deduction for your super contributions, you can use your asset to make an “in-specie” contribution to super so that the tax deduction reduces the total tax you pay.
