Welcome to the August Newsletter

It’s a Boy! And now will it be Rudd or Abbott?

In recent weeks we have seen the arrival of the new 3rd in line to the British Throne.  I think Prince George is already well set up for financial independence so he may not need to read this month’s newsletter.  For the rest of us, in a few weeks the federal election will be decided and will set the business and economic framework for the next few years. 

This country needs a sense of certainty to kick this economy forward so we hope that is the outcome on September 7. 

It is all about confidence so that is our lead article this month.  We also travel to Asia to get a barometer of confidence amongst our neighbours; we discuss borrowing to invest, credit card rewards and cover federal Government announcements in superannuation. 

We hope you enjoy and next month we will look at how the federal election result will affect you. 

 

Regards

Gordon
