2015 Summer Newsletter

Once again another year has flown by, and we find ourselves half way through the tax year.

On the sporting front this year, Prince of Penzance beat the odds and saw Michelle Payne emerge as the first ever female Melbourne Cup winning jockey. The AFL Grand Final saw the Hawks once again victorious, this time taking out the hat trick with a win against the fancied West Coast Eagles. Whilst the ARL Grand Final saw an epic all Queensland showdown with the Cowboys clinching their inaugural nail-biting win against the Broncos.

On the financial front, interest rates have remained at record low levels, but the year has seen change, with Turnbull replacing Abbott in the top job in Canberra. This issue takes a seasonal look at the benefits of giving and keeping the taxman happy at Christmas, together with ATOs eBay data matching program, personal and business partner insurance, what happens if there is no will, customer service and scrapping the SMSF anti-detriment concession.

We hope you find the newsletter of value and more importantly we would like to wish you and your family a very Merry Xmas and hope the New Year brings you much happiness and success.
