Affordable housing budget changes (CGT  60% discount) Family home, no CGT on sale. Succession planning Cons Liability – joint and several. No flexibility in income distribution. High risk if individual sued (particularly business owners). Travel changes. Foreign residents not CGT exempt for residence. Personal guarantees.

Company Pros Separate legal entity with limited liability (asset protection). May be established quickly and efficiently. Good borrowing vehicle. Corporate tax rate of 27.5% is lower than top individual marginal rate and going down to 25%. Profits can be easily accumulated without further tax. Cons Losses are trapped in the company and cannot be distributed to shareholders. Gains made by the company not entitled to the 50% general capital gains tax discount. Division 7A issues. Cost to establish and maintain. Personal guarantees.

Unit Trust Losses are quarantined. Pros Easy to establish. A unit holder’s interest in the trust’s income or capital is clearly defined. A unit holder can sell its units or have its units redeemed by the trustee. Tax advantages, character of income flows through the trust to the unit holders. Asset protection of corporate trustee. Cons Losses are quarantined. Not as easy to wind up as a discretionary trust. Personal guarantees.

Discretionary Trust Easy to set up. Flexibility to stream income. Pros Easy to set up. Flexibility to stream income. Easy to wind up or vest. Easy to hand over control to members of the family. Asset protection if corporate trustee. Beneficiaries who receive capital gains can claim the 50% capital gains discount if held for  12 months. Cons Difficult to bring external parties into. 80 year rule. Succession planning problems. Personal guarantees.

Self managed super fund (SMSF) Pros Asset protection. Low taxation rate. 15% income tax. 10% CGT. CGT discount. Good for business owners. Cons Locked up till retirement. Little flexibility. Expensive to create, fund and run. Can not improve property.
