CA ANZ CALLS FOR SOUND TAX POLICIES – NOT ESCALATING POLITICS
13 April 2025 Chartered Accountants ANZ’s Chief Economist, Professor Richard Holden, says today’s housing and tax policy announcements from both the Coalition and the Labor parties have clear weaknesses. "The policies offered by both parties are much better politics than they are economics,” Professor Holden said. "The Coalition's unprecedented mortgage interest tax deduction is costly to the budget, arbitrary in terms of who it helps, creates financial stability risks, and is hard to roll back. "The Labor party’s ‘five percent deposit' policy raises many questions. Since the government is essentially providing mortgage insurance for low-deposit purchasers, what is the true…

Stay safe this winter: protect yourself and those around you by getting vaccinated
As the weather cools down in most parts of Australia, I’d like to remind you to protect yourself against serious illnesses by booking your vaccinations this winter.
