Asset Protection

Today all Australians, not just business owners and landlords, are being exposed to an increased risk of litigation and consequently increased vulnerability for their assets. NSW is the 3rd most litigious state in the world (behind only California and Texas), and Queensland ranks 5th. The other states are “catching up”. Across Australia public liability claims are increasing rapidly.

Whether you are a business owner or private investor, we suggest you consider setting up an investment trust as a method of protecting the assets you have now and will accumulate in the future.

This is particularly important if you are exposed to risk through operating your own business or you are renting out property.
