Superannuation Fund Trustees Liability
Trustees of superannuation funds are subject to more laws protecting the rights of their members then ever before. There is no room for errors when it comes to managing and administering the fund. Any actual or alleged breach of duty could result in financially devastating legal action, which can threaten the personal assets of the trustees.
Allegations against a trustee of a superannuation fund can arise from a failure to operate the fund prudently through to a failure to correctly calculate members’ benefits.
