We can also help you decide on the right business structure and provide consultation on complex business matters. No matter what your needs are, you can count on PAL Accounting & Advisory for friendly, professional and affordable services.

For your future:
Self-managed super funds

If you want to have more control of your finances, self-managed super funds (SMSFs) can be a good option. When you manage your own SMSF, you choose the investments and the insurance, and you are also responsible for complying with the super and tax laws. But while self-managed super funds can be a great way to save up for retirement, they require a lot of work, responsibility, and expertise. To make the most out of your SMSF, we help you understand the risks and responsibilities involved and analyse your financial situation to guide you towards the best option. Our superannuation experts can assist you with setting up and managing your SMSF.

We have been clients of PAL Accounting for over 15 years. While their name may have changed, their commitment to providing timely, accurate, tailored advice hasn’t. As our business grows, they understand our challenges, changing business needs and provide valuable insight to best manage increased governance responsibilities. PAL’s personalised approach and wealth of knowledge means that we cannot recommend them highly enough.
Keep up the great work.
