In a year of unexpected challenges and changes, the delay in the release of the Federal Budget to October is yet another first.
As with all the recent changes, we understand your need to keep up to date with the latest news and information. This year we have assembled an outstanding panel of speakers to help you understand the implications of the Federal Budget for you and your business, including:
  • FACILITATOR: Andrew Sykes, Director, RSM Australia
  • Paul Bongiorno AM, Columnist, The Saturday Paper
  • Effie Zahos, Editor-at-Large, Canstar
  • Craig James, Chief Economist, CommSec
  • Tony Fulton, Director, RSM Australia
Our panel members will analyse the business, economic, tax and political implications of the Budget. On the one hand Australia has officially entered the first recession since 1991 and revealed the biggest deficit since World War 2. On the other, we see the continuation of support and stimulus packages as uncertainty around the pandemic continues.
Wherever you are in Australia, join us for the RSM post budget briefing and take advantage of an early opportunity to learn how the measures will shape your year ahead.
