    I understand that with super changes taking effect from 1st July, a smsf retiree over 65 cannot make a contribution (including concessional contribution) to her/his super.
    Q1/ Does this mean that she/he cannot participate in any capital raisings such as SPP, rights issues, etc of any of her/his share holdings?
    Q2/ What happens to the case when a retiree (member A) over 65 has a joint share of a smsf super fund in the ratio of 80 to 20 with member B who is 60 years old. Let’s say their CBA share has a SPP capital raising and the fund takes up $10000 in new CBA shares. Are all the new CBA shares to be allocated to member B during the ensuing accounting process as member A cannot contribute to his/her fund?
    Many thanks to your answers.
