Strategies for Using Imputation Bonds             

These strategies and many others are covered in greater detail in the Part A PDS “Planning Strategies for Imputation Bonds”

 

Financial Planning

Imputation Bonds are ideal for meeting “life-event” objectives, such as sinking fund strategies for repaying debt, financing education, health contingencies, in succession and business applications. They can also assist with qualifying for various “income-tested” government benefits and rebates.

 

Estate Planning

Use an Imputation Bond to provide tax-effective inheritances, with flexibility to structure your investment either as part of, or outside of your Will and legal estate.  Tax-Free distributions are made to your estate beneficiaries or to the Bond's directly Nominated Beneficiaries.
