Div 7A changes “will draw on a number of

“appropriate transitional arrangements”
“single compliant loan duration of ten years” – 25 years?
Self-correction mechanism
Safe harbour rules (use of assets)
Technical amendments
Effective from 1 July 2018 – too late for 2010 UPEs?!

PS para 56:
The payment of the principal funds invested in the main trust (that is,
the funds representing the UPE) and annual return to the private
company must be such that if those payments had instead been
repayments of a Division 7A loan made by a private company, they
would not be disregarded by section 109R.

Complexity and artificiality
“Dealing with complexity is an inefficient and unnecessary
waste of time, attention and mental energy. There is
never any justification for things being complex when they
could be simple.” - Edward de Bono
