How do I add cryptocurrency to my client's SMSF?

Provide the appropriate Registered Trust information when prompted.
Start buying crypto
Once your client's SMSF account is verified, they can begin buying crypto.
Risks and Responsibilities
Adding cryptocurrency to an SMSF can significantly increase the risk profile of your fund. Given the volatility of the cryptocurrency markets, there is the possibility of low or negative returns on your investment and you will not have access to the Australian Financial Complaints Authority in relation to your investment in cryptocurrency.
SMSF members are wholly responsible for ensuring that their fund is compliant with the regulations contained in the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act and must maintain compliance even if the law changes. Members must also ensure that any cryptocurrency investments comply with the fund’s trust deed and investment strategy.
We strongly recommend you seek professional advice before deciding to add cryptocurrency to your fund’s portfolio.
