    Your typical industry or retail fund lodges a tax return like everyone else... if you are in an Australian shares option your investment has a theoretical unit price which includes the value of the franking credits earned.

    Most big super funds that contract out management of their investment options will request the Fund Manager to manage the investment on a tax efficient basis. And the performance return benchmarks are a customised of the ASX300 accumulation index which include franking credits.

    Fair to say the industry as a whole has given it significant thought given the amount of dollars on the line. You needn't worry
