The 2020-21 Federal Budget is a road to recovery paved with cash.
Key initiatives include:
– Personal income tax cuts from 1 July 2020
– A $4 billion ‘JobMaker’ Hiring Credit to encourage businesses to take on more employees aged 16-35 years old
– $110 billion in infrastructure investment over 10 years
– Immediate deductions for business investment in capital asset
– Changes to how companies can manage losses
– Access to generous tax concessions for a wider range of businesses
For those who may not be aware, the ATO’s Small Business Superannuation Clearing House (SBSCH) will permanently close on 1 July 2026. From 1 October 2025, new registrations will no longer be accepted. This is a major change that affects small businesses across all industries currently using the SBSCH to pay their employees’ super.
Let’s break down what the CGT discount is, why it’s not always the best option, and what you should consider before choosing how to structure your investments.
