The Treasurer has confirmed Labor will double tax rates paid by those with over $3 million in their super.

Individuals with superannuation balances surpassing $3 million will see their tax rate double to 30 per cent from 2025-26, Treasurer Jim Chalmers said on Tuesday.

Currently, earnings from superannuation in the accumulation phase are taxed at a concessional rate of up to 15 per cent, with the Treasurer confirming in a statement that this will continue for all super accounts with balances below $3 million.

The government is set to introduce enabling legislation to implement this adjustment "as soon as practicable".

Further consultation are expected to be undertaken with the superannuation industry and other relevant stakeholders to settle the implementation of the measure.

More to come.

To celebrate Financial Planning Week 2022, the FPA commissioned new research to highlight the difference in quality of life between advised and unadvised Australians, also launching the inaugural Value of Advice (VoA) Index.

The study measures perceptions of quality of life, financial confidence and satisfaction, drawing attention to the difference between unadvised and advised Australians. In the future it will provide a year-on-year comparison on the value financial advice.

The latest insights reveal that Australians are significantly better off across the board than those who are not advised. Furthermore, those Australians advised by a CFP© adviser report demonstrably improved outcomes. www.fpa.com.au/news/australians-who-engage-a-financial-planner-have-a-better-quality-of-life-fpa-launches-inaugural-value-of-advice-index/
