Hi Guys
A SMSF cannot incur debt in any way, shape or form
This is why SMSF's cannot invest in an installment warrant as this is a debt facility, unlike an endowment warrant which is a contractural obligation.
CFD's are a contractural obligation and a SMSF can use these instruments, providing they lodge cash with the provider and do not lodge assets as security - this is seen as allowing someone to take a charge over the assets of a Superannuation fund which is definitely against the law.
Have a great day
