About
Built for the person actually running the fund.
What Super Informed is, who writes it, and why it exists.
Clear SMSF information, written for trustees
Super Informed is an Australian SMSF information publisher, founded in March 2026 by Sam Corrie. It covers Australian superannuation law and ATO guidance, focused on self-managed super funds (SMSFs) and the trustees responsible for running them.
Every Super Informed resource starts with a single question: what do trustees actually need to understand before the next deadline, ruling, or decision lands on their plate? Not what changed in a regulatory sense. Not what advisers are discussing with their clients. What a financially literate person running their own fund needs to know.
The answer is published as practical SMSF guides, tools, and weekly updates: sourced from ATO guidance, legislation, and credible financial media, then written clearly without jargon, without advice, and without padding.
The goal is not to replace your accountant or adviser. It is to make sure you are not the least informed person in the room when you speak to them.

Editorial process, standards, and independence
Super Informed is written and maintained by Sam Corrie from Adelaide, South Australia. The first weekly issue was published on 12 March 2026.
The newsletter publishes weekly, every Thursday, and the guides and tools are updated when rules, thresholds, deadlines, or ATO guidance change.
Every guide, tool, and newsletter issue follows the same process: start with the primary source (ATO guidance, legislation, or regulator announcements), verify the current rules and thresholds, then write for the person who needs to act on the information rather than the professional advising them. Secondary reporting is used for context, not as a substitute for checking the underlying rule or announcement.
Where sponsorships exist, they are clearly labelled and separated from editorial content. Super Informed is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or written on behalf of any employer, bank, super fund, product issuer, adviser, accountant, or regulator.
Sources are linked
Long-form articles include references so readers can check ATO guidance, legislation, regulator announcements, or other official sources directly.
Editorially independent
Not affiliated with any employer, bank, fund, product issuer, adviser, or regulator. Content is based on primary-source research and editorial analysis.
No personal advice
Super Informed is general financial education. It does not recommend products, investments, strategies, or actions for a reader's personal circumstances.
