Financial Planning for Sydney’s Senior Executives: Expert Guidance from Boa & Co.

Senior executives and corporate leaders in Sydney often focus on driving business growth and shareholder value—yet their personal and professional financial strategies can be just as complex as the companies they lead.
High-income earners face unique challenges, including complex tax obligations, investment decisions, retirement planning, and compliance with ever-changing regulations.

With 2025 well underway, it’s essential for senior corporate professionals to optimise their financial strategies to stay compliant, protect wealth, and prepare for the future.

In this blog, we explore the key financial priorities senior executives and corporate leaders should focus on in 2025 and beyond—and how Boa & Co. Chartered Accountants can help.


1. Tax Planning for High-Income Earners

Senior executives often fall into the top tax brackets, which makes effective tax planning critical.
Key strategies include:

  • Structuring salaries, bonuses, and equity incentives to maximise after-tax income
  • Claiming legitimate deductions on work-related expenses, travel, and continuing professional education
  • Managing capital gains from investment portfolios and property sales
  • Planning for Division 293 tax on superannuation contributions

With guidance from Boa & Co., high-earning professionals can optimise their tax positions while staying compliant with ATO requirements.


2. Equity, Bonuses, and Incentive Scheme Management

Many senior corporate leaders receive remuneration packages that include:

  • Shares, options, or performance rights
  • Deferred cash bonuses
  • Profit-sharing or long-term incentive plans

Understanding the tax implications and timing of these benefits is crucial. Boa & Co. helps executives create strategies to minimise tax liabilities and maximise long-term wealth.


3. Wealth Protection & Investment Strategies

High-income professionals often have complex investment portfolios spanning property, equities, superannuation, and private businesses.
To safeguard and grow wealth:

  • Diversify investments to reduce risk
  • Review asset ownership structures to optimise tax outcomes
  • Integrate investment strategies with retirement and estate planning

Boa & Co. offers tailored advice to ensure your wealth is both protected and strategically positioned for growth.


4. Superannuation & Retirement Planning

Executives can often build significant superannuation balances—but new tax rules for high super balances (over $3 million) require careful planning.
Boa & Co. helps executives:

  • Maximise concessional and non-concessional contributions
  • Navigate Division 293 tax and the new 30% tax on balances over $3M (effective from 1 July 2026)
  • Explore self-managed superannuation funds (SMSFs) as part of a broader retirement strategy

5. Succession & Estate Planning

Executives nearing retirement or transitioning to board roles must ensure their financial legacy is secure.
We guide clients in:

  • Structuring trusts and wills to protect assets
  • Minimising potential tax impacts on heirs
  • Aligning succession plans with personal and family goals
