In the last a few months, we have seen several key developments for business owners, trustees, and investors. 

A recent Tribunal case, for instance, emphasises the critical importance of timing and evidence for trust distributions. At the same time, new rules have made ATO interest charges non-deductible, and we will explore the actionable steps you can take.

We will also examine the Federal Government’s review of supermarket unit pricing. This initiative could fundamentally change how suppliers and retailers handle packaging and pricing compliance. Finally, we cover the ATO’s new warnings about early access to superannuation. This serves as a reminder that short-term solutions can often lead to more serious long-term financial difficulties.
