corporate trustee, page-3

Its other benefit is when one SMSF member dies or a couple get divorced. I don't know how accurate this is, but I've read on other forums there's less paperwork in that situation because the company is written down as the owner of assets rather than the names of the people who are the SMSF's trustees. (You would need to change the names on the assets in the later situation - all while you could be grieving the loss of someone close)

In my case it helps me because I want to keep my finances private and its less complicated because I get to make all the investing decisions, but that freedom comes at a small increased cost.
