15.01.2022 It has been an extraordinary year with the impacts of COVID-19 pummelling individual balance sheets, business viability and our economy. In response, we have seen unprecedented Government spending larger than anything seen in post-war Australia. Yesterday, the Federal Government delivered an extraordinary Budget which is why we’re holding this special Mentor Walks event, with Bobbi Mahlab in conversation with Senior Economist Cherelle Murphy and author and well-respected... financial adviser Kate McCallum to help you decipher it. We'll highlight the key announcements in the Budget, what it means for the economy, discuss the challenges for women and the opportunities for individuals and business so you can make bigger and better decisions to chart your path into 2021.
