1 Introduction A new Comprehensive SoA has been introduced for Coin Office v3.4 (build 55). This SoA offers advisers the ability to generate documents covering the following types of strategies: Non Superannuation Recommendations (including ETP payments, gearing, instalment warrants, and Debt management scenarios) Superannuation Recommendations (including rollovers, commutations, income streams, in specie transfers and SMSFs) Insurance Recommendations Centrelink Recommendations Estate Planning Recommendations

A comprehensive list of Word Tags has also been incorporated to ensure advisers are provided maximum flexibility when constructing their advice documents. This new SoA has also been reviewed in terms of formatting to ensure the final document is easy to read and use for your clients.


2 Asset Classes within the SoA Please note, this SoA will only populate correctly when used in conjunction with the 'COIN Asset Classes' or the 'Van Eyk Asset Classes' as selected in the Dealer Group Preferences.

The main difference between the COIN asset classes and the Van Eyk asset classes will be the grouping of the asset classes as follows: COIN asset classes in the comprehensive SoA will include the following 9 asset classes

Defensive Asset Classes Growth Asset Classes

Cash Australian Fixed Interest: Mortgage will be grouped under Aust FI International FI

Australian Equities Int’l Equities Property Securities Direct property Alternative Other


Van Eyk asset classes in the comprehensive SoA will include the following 8 asset classes

Defensive Asset Classes Growth Asset Classes

Cash Fixed Interest: (Mortgage + Aust FI + Int’l FI will be grouped under Fixed Interest)

Australian Equities Int’l Equities Property & Infrastructure - relabelled Direct property Alternative Other

The asset classes you select will affect the way the asset allocation tables are labelled throughout the SoA. Some sample output is shown below.

COIN Asset Classes Van Eyk Asset Classes


3 Instructions for using this SoA Guide There are certain data inputs the user needs to be aware of to ensure the information is captured correctly in the SoA. This guide will help the user in identifying these inputs when formulating specific strategies to ensure the correct SoA output. This guide will take you through all the Comprehensive Tags in the order they appear under 'Comprehensive SoA’. The tag will be shown in the left hand column. Under each tag a Fact Find or Strategy Input (step/s) will be highlighted. The right hand column displays the expected SoA output if you enter the strategies correctly.

Please note, the user needs to pay specific attention to the symbol as this provides the user with details around certain input criterion.

4 Prerequisites for using this guide This guide provides an overview of the Strategy inputs required to generate the comprehensive SoA and assumes the user will have a good understanding of the Coin software. For any further assistance regarding using the Coin software to, please contact your Coin Relationship Manager or the Coin Support desk on 1300 783 603. Alternatively, you can access the Coin Help Guide via the Help menu or Marquee.


5 'On’ Mode Vs ‘Off’ Mode This document refers to ‘On’ mode and ‘Off’ mode, which relates to whether or not the transactions option for superannuation and ABP services has been turned 'on' or left 'off'. This preferences setting is shown below.

When this setting is checked the user will be able to create super and pension service transactions which will then be reflected in the new Generic SoA. As a result, there are changes to the way some super recommendations are entered in Strategy when the ‘On’ mode is enabled. This will be highlighted throughout the guide where necessary. No changes have been made to the way strategies are entered when using ‘Off’ mode.


6 Non Superannuation Recommendations

6.1 Eligible Termination Payments

SoA Output Rolling over a Transitional ETP

The ‘Redundancy’ Tool will need to be completed for all ETP options. Strategy Input

Review of your Eligible Termination Payment

When you receive a genuine redundancy or approved early retirement scheme payment, the portion of the payment above a tax free threshold may be classified as an Employment Termination Payment (ETP). In general, an ETP cannot be rolled into superannuation. However, transitional rules allowing this to apply where the amount of the payment is specified by a qualifying contract in place as at 9 May 2006. Your termination payment fits into this category, meaning that you have the option of receiving the ETP portion of your termination payment either in cash, rolling entire ETP into a superannuation fund or a combination of these options. We recommend that you elect to rollover your ETP into superannuation. A summary of our recommendation and an estimate of the associated tax liabilities is shown in the below table.

The user will need to ensure the ‘R/O Total’ option is selected and the ‘Transitional’ check box will need to be checked for the information to populate the SoA. Also ensure all other relevant fields are completed. If using ‘On’ mode and you would like the ETP to appear in the ‘Summary of investment Recommendations’ and ‘Fee Disclosure’ sections the user will need to add a lump sum investment via the ‘Asset Mix’ tab under the Super service.

The Recommended Investments table and Fee Disclosure tables will not be populated if the user is using ‘Off’ mode.

Summary of Investment Recommendations

6.2 Investment Recommendations

SoA Output

Establish a Cash Reserve

Fact Find Input

Alternatively the liquidity amount can be entered under the ‘Objectives’ tab.

If the Cash Reserve amount is entered in both areas, the amount in the ‘Objectives’ tab will take precedence.

Establishing a cash reserve

We recommend that you establish a cash reserve by investing $10,000<Adviser to Edit> in an appropriate at-call <cash management account><Adviser to Edit text>.

We have made this recommendation for the following reasons:

Holding these funds in a secure cash investment will help to ensure that you will have sufficient liquid funds available to meet unexpected expenses or that you can temporarily replace any lost income resulting from unexpected events.

Other things to consider:

Funds invested in cash will provide you with income, but not capital growth. This generally means that, over the long term, the investment returns on your cash reserve may be less than if you invested into growth assets (such as shares and property).


Selling or Reviewing Existing Investments

Strategy Input

Add a Home Equity Loan:

Borrowing to invest

Borrowing to purchase investments can be a tax effective way of creating wealth over the longer term. This is referred to as 'gearing'. Larger investment returns can be achieved provided that the total return produced by your geared investment portfolio exceeds the costs of the borrowing. We recommend that you implement a gearing strategy, borrowing a total of $50,000 against the equity in your principal residence to invest as outlined in subsequent recommendations.

Lump sum Investments (Managed funds or Equities)

Strategy Input

Add managed funds or shares with an initial lumpsum transaction/s;

Investing in managed funds and direct equities

Direct equities (or shares) may be purchased and sold through a broker and effectively give you partial ownership of a company. This entitles you to share in company profits (through dividends) as well as capital growth. Owning and managing direct equities is generally only practical for the Australian share portion of a portfolio. Managed funds are a type of investment in which your capital is pooled with capital from many other investors. The decisions regarding the selection and management of the investment portfolio are then taken care of by a professional fund manager. Managed funds are practical for all portions of a portfolio. We recommend that you invest into a portfolio of managed funds and direct equities through platform name as shown in the table below, and elect to have all distributions reinvested/directed to a <cash account><Adviser to Edit>.

Borrowing to invest using Protected Equity Loan

Strategy Input

Add a Protected Equity Loan by using the Margin Lending/PEL option:

The user will need to add ‘Protected Equity Loan’ or ‘PEL’ in the ‘Description’ field and the ‘PEL’ option under ‘Loan Type’ needs to be selected for this strategy to appear in the SoA.

Investing via a Protected Equity Loan

Borrowing to purchase investments can be a tax effective way of creating wealth over the longer term. This is referred to as 'gearing'. Larger investment returns can be achieved provided that the total return produced by your geared investment portfolio exceeds the costs of the borrowing. Like regular geared investments, with a protected equity loan (PEL) you are liable to pay interest on the loan while being able to benefit from investment price gains along with any dividends that may accrue. However, a PEL arrangement also includes a capital protection feature which provides a form of insurance against downward movements in investment prices. We recommend that you take out a protected equity loan and invest the funds as shown in the following tables.

Borrowing to invest using Self Funding Instalment Warrants

Strategy Input

Add an Instalment Warrant by choosing the Margin Lending option:

For this strategy to populate the SoA the user will need to ensure the word ‘Self Funding Instalment’ or ‘SFI’ is visible in the ‘Description’ field.

Investing in Self Funding Instalment Warrants

Borrowing to purchase investments can be a tax effective way of creating wealth over the longer term. This is referred to as 'gearing'. Larger investment returns can be achieved provided that the total return produced by your geared investment portfolio exceeds the costs of the borrowing.

Instalment Warrants are a type of geared investment that may be traded in the same way as ordinary shares. They allow you to acquire an asset (usually direct equities) for only a fraction of its market value and borrow the difference. Instalment Warrants are considered 'Self Funding' when the income received from the investment is used to cover the interest costs associated with the packaged loan. Should you not wish to take full ownership of the shares at the end of the term you are not required to repay the outstanding loan balance.

We recommend that you invest via Self Funding Instalment Warrants as shown in the table below.

In-Specie Transfer into Platform

Strategy Input

An In specie Transfer will allow the user to transfer an existing direct asset to a service or existing assets held under a service to another service. To model this you will need to add the assets to be transferred into the 'asset mix' of the service to which they are being transferred. Do not enter an amount at this point.

You will then need to transfer the existing product/s to the new asset within the service using the Add Lumpsum Transfer option:

The service that the asset is being transferred 'to' must be a 'recommended' service.

Making an in specie transfer into a platform

An in specie transfer involves a direct transfer of assets between structures in place of a cash contribution or withdrawal. We recommend that you make an in specie transfer of your investments into a platform as shown in the table below.

Implementing a Debt Recycling Strategy

Strategy Input

Debt Recycling using Lump Sums can be modelled and then populated within the SoA. The user will need to ensure the word ‘Debt Recycling’ is entered into the ‘Description’ field when making the Lump sum Asset Withdrawal, Lump sum Loan Repayment and Adding the Margin Loan. Step 1 - Withdraw funds from existing assets to repay the Home Loan (non-deductible debt)

Implementing a debt recycling strategy

A debt recycling strategy allows you to convert inefficient (non-deductible) debt into efficient (tax -deductible) debt. It generally involves selling investments, repaying loans, and then re-borrowing funds to invest. As the first step in a debt recycling strategy, we recommend that you reduce the level of your non-deductible debt as shown in the table below.

Existing Loans Owner Amount

5 Superannuation The following section outlines the superannuation recommendations that can be populated into the SoA. Please note, there are some specific rules in relation to Self Managed Superannuation Fund (SMSF) recommendations. We have outlined these below.

When recommending SMSFs the user has the option to make recommendations on a new SMSF or an existing SMSF by selecting the word tags that fall under ‘Superannuation Recommendations’ or ‘SMSF Recommendations’. If you are providing comprehensive advice to the clients that cover other aspects of their personal position as well as SMSF advice then the user should select the appropriate 'Establish SMSF' option under the Superannuation Recommendations heading as well as the relevant word tags under SMSF recommendations. This will ensure that personal and SMSF details will flow into the comprehensive SoA.


However, if the user intends to provide advice on SMSFs only - you must ensure the ‘SMSF Only’ tag is checked as well as any other related SMSF tags that fall under the SMSF Recommendations’. Please note, if the user selects word tags for other personal recommendations (e.g. debt or investment advice) they will not work in conjunction with the 'SMSF only' check box.

Please note, the SMSF Objectives in Fact Find are intended for advising on existing SMSF clients only. This should be considered in conjunction with the word tags that appear under SMSF Recommendations.


5.1 Superannuation Recommendations

SoA Output Establish SMSF (no Rollover of Benefits)

Fact Find Input

The user needs to ensure an SMSF is created in Fact Find with a Recommended status.

Strategy Input

Step 1 - The SMSF will need to be created under the Superannuation Assets tab as a recommended SMSF.

Establishing a self managed super fund (SMSF)

Your superannuation fund plays an important part in building your retirement nest egg, so it is important to consider your options including how are your funds invested and the costs involved. Given the size of your superannuation investment portfolio and your interest in controlling your superannuation investments, we recommend that you establish a SMSF.


Control - A SMSF will give you a greater degree of control over your superannuation investments.

Flexibility - They also afford a greater degree of investment flexibility compared to the use of other superannuation vehicles. For example, you are able to access certain geared investments via a SMSF, and certain personal assets such as listed shares and business real property may be transferred into a SMSF in specie or may be purchased by the fund.

Lower Fees - Provided the SMSF maintains a sufficiently sized investment portfolio there is the potential for lower costs in the long term compared to investing through other superannuation vehicles.


Step 2 - The user will then need to add the assets of the SMSF to the value of the contributions that will be made. Ensuring the assets are added from ‘Start”.

The ‘Recommended Investments – SMSF’ table will Only display Lump sum Investments that have been made in the Additional/Withdrawal p.a. column. No regular investments will be recorded.

Step 3 - The user will need to add Regular or Lump sum contribution/s to the SMSF as an initial injection to the fund.

Summary of Investment Recommendations This section summarises the investments we have recommended for your portfolio. In developing our recommendations we have taken into account your personal circumstances and risk profile, as well as the current economic conditions and portfolio theory.

Establish SMSF (Rollover of Benefits)

Fact Find input

The user needs to ensure an SMSF is created in Fact Find with a Recommended status.

Strategy Input

The user will need to rollover an existing super fund to the SMSF.

Superannuation The generous tax concessions that apply to investments held within superannuation make it the location of choice for long term investments. Individuals who are approaching retirement or who already have access to their superannuation benefits might also consider it for shorter term investments. Of course, the benefits that superannuation offers need to be considered against the limitations it imposes. This section outlines our recommendations as to how you might take advantage of the benefits offered by the superannuation environment without falling into any potential traps.

Rolling over your super benefits into a self managed super fund (SMSF)

Your superannuation fund plays an important part in building your retirement nest egg, so it is important to consider your options including how are your funds invested and the costs involved. Given the size of your superannuation investment portfolio and your interest in controlling your superannuation investments, we recommend that you establish a SMSF and rollover your superannuation benefits into this fund as shown in the table below.

Step 2 - Add super contribution/s to the fund to inject an amount to the asset mix. When a contribution is made the user will have an option to create asset transactions. In this case purchase amounts have already been entered.

Establishing a new superannuation account

Your superannuation fund plays an important part in building your retirement nest egg, so it is important to consider your options including how are your funds invested and the costs involved. We recommend that you establish a new superannuation account and invest into a diversified portfolio of managed funds as shown in the table below.

Making non-concessional contributions

Strategy Input

Add a Lump sum or Regular non-concessional contribution:

The co-contribution paragraph in the SoA output will appear automatically if the client/spouse is eligible and this has been selected and calculated in strategy. This paragraph notes an assessable income of $61,923. This has been rounded up by 3 cents due to the reduced amount applied of 3.333 cents. The user will need to manually adjust this figure to $61,920.

Making non-concessional contributions to superannuation

Non-concessional contributions are contributions made to a superannuation fund using after-tax dollars. Non-concessional contributions made by individuals with assessable income below $61,923 may be entitled to a government co-contribution. Under this scheme, the government may contribute $0 into an individual's super fund for every $1 of non-concessional contributions made up to a certain limit. The maximum co-contribution is $1,000, and is reduced by 3.333 cents for every dollar of assessable income (plus reportable employer superannuation contributions) over $31,920. The co-contribution completely phases out at an assessable income of $61,923 per annum. We recommend that you make non-concessional contribution(s) into superannuation as shown in the table below.

5.2 SMSF Recommendations

SoA Output Establish Cash Reserve for SMSF

Strategy Input

Add a new Cash a/c in the SMSF. This is done under the asset mix tab for the SMSF.

When adding a ‘Cash Reserve’ the user will need to ensure the following is completed before the correct cash value populates the SoA: Ensure the Investment Type is ‘Cash’ Do Not check the ‘Set as WCA’ option Ensure the ‘Retain’ field is on ‘Yes’

Self Managed Super Fund The recommendations outlined below aim to assist you in achieving the objectives of your SMSF and its members, whilst taking into account their risk and return preferences and a SMSF investment strategy.

Establishing a cash reserve

We recommend that you establish cash reserve by investing $100,000<Adviser to Edit> in an appropriate at-call cash management account.


Holding these funds in a secure cash investment will help to ensure that you will have sufficient liquid funds available to meet unexpected expenses as well as regular commitments such as pension payments or accounting fees.

Other things to consider:

Funds invested in cash will provide you with income, but not capital growth. This generally means that, over the long term, the investment returns on your cash reserve may be less than if you invested into growth assets (such as shares and property).


Ensure updated Investment Strategy

Strategy Input

No input is required. The table is static and requires adviser input. This option should always be checked when advising on SMSFS to ensure the Investment Strategy information appears in the SoA.

Ensuring an appropriate investment strategy is in place

The trustee of a SMSF is responsible for managing its funds on behalf its members. The trustee has a legislated duty to formulate and implement an investment strategy that will guide all subsequent investment decisions. This investment strategy must take into account the whole circumstances of the fund and its members. We recommend that you ensure that an appropriate and updated investment strategy is established for your SMSF. In line with your personal risk profile, we have assumed that your investment strategy will allow for the following asset allocations.

Strategy Input

The information on both these word tags is static and appears under the heading ‘Borrowing to invest’ this section requires adviser input even if the modelling has been completed in Strategy. The table that relates to the regular gearing is not coded to populate the SoA and therefore manual input is required.

Borrowing to invest

Borrowing to purchase investments can be a tax effective way of creating wealth over the longer term. This is referred to as 'gearing'. Larger investment returns can be achieved provided that the total return produced by your geared investment portfolio exceeds the costs of the borrowing. A SMSF is able to borrow money to acquire any asset which a SMSF is permitted to acquire directly, subject to certain conditions. We recommend that you implement a gearing strategy through your SMSF, borrowing <$Amount><Adviser to Edit> through a limited recourse arrangement to invest as outlined in subsequent recommendations. We also recommend that you make regular additional drawdowns of <$Amount><Adviser to Edit> per annum from your loan to further build your investments. <Adviser to Edit>

Investing in managed funds

Managed funds are a type of investment in which your capital is pooled with capital from many other investors. The decisions regarding the selection and management of the investment portfolio are then taken care of by a professional fund manager. Managed funds are practical for all portions of a portfolio. We recommend that you invest into a portfolio of managed funds through the platform as shown in the table below, and elect to have all distributions reinvested/directed to a cash account. We also recommend that you establish a regular savings plan to supplement your initial investment with contributions of $20,000 per annum.

Borrowing to invest using Self Instalment Warrants

Strategy Input

Add an Instalment Warrant into the SMSF by adding ‘Other Investment Loan’:

For this strategy to populate the SoA the user will need to ensure the word ‘Self Funding Instalment’ or ‘SFI’ is visible in the ‘Description’ field.

Investing in Self Funding Instalment Warrants Borrowing to purchase investments can be a tax effective way of creating wealth over the longer term. This is referred to as 'gearing'. Larger investment returns can be achieved provided that the total return produced by your geared investment portfolio exceeds the costs of the borrowing. Instalment Warrants are a type of geared investment permitted for use by SMSFs that may be traded in the same way as ordinary shares. They allow you to acquire an asset (usually direct equities) for only a fraction of its market value and borrow the difference. Instalment Warrants are considered 'Self Funding' when the income received from the investment is used to cover the interest costs associated with the packaged loan. Should you not wish to take full ownership of the shares at the end of the term you are not required to repay the outstanding loan balance. We recommend that you invest via Self Funding Instalment Warrants as shown in the table below.

If any of the above tags are checked and the client is eligible for the Centrelink benefit in the first year of the projections (and this has been selected and calculated in Strategy) the appropriate tables will be populated. The Age Pension section is shown below as an example.

Accessing the Age Pension The Age Pension is a regular payment from the government for a person who has reached retirement age. The maximum available entitlement depends on whether you are single or in a couple. Once that has been determined, the amount of your entitlement (if any) depends on your level of income and assets. The following tables summarises your estimated entitlements under the Assets and Income Tests. Note that the actual benefit payable is the lower of the entitlements determined by these tests.

8 Estate Planning Recommendations

If any or all of the above tags are checked the relevant sections will be populated under section ‘Estate Planning’. This section will populate with text only, you will need to personalise this in line with your client's situation. When you select the 'Establish Binding Death Nominations' word tag the relevant text will populate as well as a table showing all of the superannuation assets that exist in the recommended position for the client and spouse.

You will need to edit the 'nomination type' column.


Placing binding death nominations over superannuation benefits

Superannuation assets do not always form part of your estate and so are not necessarily under the control of a will. Instead, binding nominations can be used to direct superannuation accumulation and pension assets to eligible beneficiaries (or estate) in the event of death. We recommend that you establish a binding death benefit nomination over your superannuation assets as shown in the table below, nominating an appropriate beneficiary.
