We prefer if the Funds we administer set up a Macquarie Cash Management Account (CMA for short). This is a dedicated SMSF bank account. This account will act as a hub or transaction account for your Fund.

The main advantages for an SMSF using the Macquarie CMA account are:

• no account keeping fees
• interest rate the same as the official bank rate
• Superannuation Warehouse can debit your Fund monthly fee from this bank account
• deposits can be done at any NAB branches
• Superannuation Warehouse can view your account at year end to prepare financial accounts and tax returns

To open up an SMSF bank account, we will send you the procedure to do this when a new fund is set up. To open up a Macquarie bank account at any other time, please contact us.

Macquarie Bank now makes and receives all payments digitally and no longer accepts paper cheques. To view the changes, click the link below:

Accelerator Account allows Trustees to earn more on their cash kept within the CMA due to the Accelerator high interest. You can easily transfer into your Accelerator from any external bank account. However, to be able to open an Accelerator, you have to hold a Cash Management Account with Macquarie. For a further look at how to open and operate an Accelerator see here.

From 1 March 2023, you would no longer be required to submit paper signed requests for withdrawals under $100,000. This includes requests using the Macquarie Withdrawal Form, Recurring Payment Form, and requests made via email. 

Instead, you can now make withdrawals through online and mobile banking platforms. This would be a more secure way to process withdrawals.
