Wealth Focus Investment Advantage is an investment platform that allows you to switch funds within the platform with no capital gains tax liability.

What are the tax benefits?

• CGT-free switching. You can move your investments across asset classes and managers without triggering CGT.
• CGT-free partial withdrawals until the cost base is reduced to zero. Partial withdrawals will not incur CGT unless the withdrawal amount exceeds the cost base of the unit.
• If the initial investment is held for more than 12 months, the CGT discount applies to all investments. Additional investments in WealthFocus Investment Advantage will not alter the acquisition date.

And not only that, all of these unique tax benefits are backed by an ATO product ruling (PR 2008/62).
