Investment bonds, also called insurance bonds, combine the features of a managed fund and a life insurance policy, offering security and tax effective investing.

One of the main tax benefits of investment bonds is that tax on earnings is paid by us at the company tax rate of 30%.

Investment earnings generally don’t have to be declared in your tax return, unless you make a withdrawal within the first 10 years of holding the policy. No personal tax is payable on the Bond once you’ve held it for 10 years and continue to satisfy the 125% rule. If you withdraw before 10 years, you may be able to take advantage of the 30% tax offset.

You can also benefit from no personal capital gains tax on investment switches, withdrawals and change of beneficial ownership, plus you can select from a range of investment options.

Investments bonds are generally suitable for families looking to save for a child’s future, retirees looking for tax-effective income, investors looking for certainty in estate planning and alternatives to super.
