If you arrange with your employer to sacrifice some of your pre-tax salary into super you will pay a maximum tax rate of 15%, instead of your marginal rate which could be up to 46.5%*. This strategy could enable you to pay less tax on your salary and make a larger investment for your retirement. If you are self-employed**, similar benefits are also available if you invest some of your business income in super and claim a tax deduction for it.
