SimpleWRAP has launched a full service administration wrap with a flat fee pricing model, which the company claims is a first in Australia for both superannuation funds and retail investors.

Weston added that the current model of charging clients for administration based on a funds-under-advice model is outdated, and the flat fee approach is necessary in the current investment and regulatory environment.

This service was launched in conjunction with Equity Trustees Superannuation, which would provide superannuation support.
