However it is important to understand that overseas countries in most instances will not recognise the SMSF as the purchaser of the property. This means that the property is invariably purchased by clients in their personal names with SMSF monies. This is tantamount to a super withdrawal and using the monies to acquire the asset in the Trustees personal name. The ATO would not accept that the owner of the asset is the SMSF in this case and where the monies accessed were preserved, the SMSF would be severely penalised for illegal access of super benefits.
Accordingly it is vitally important to ensure that the SMSF is listed as the owner of any overseas Property Investment. If you are unsure on how to do this this you must seek external advice from a licensed financial planner. More information about investing in Bonds can be found here.
