FEDERAL BUDGET ANALYSIS 2025-26

March 26, 2025

The Federal Budget has been released, and we've outlined the key elements that you need to know.

Treasury remains cautiously optimistic, stating that Australia is emerging “in better shape than almost any other advanced economy”


The 2025-26 Federal Budget brings a mix of tax relief, economic support, and regulatory changes aimed at bolstering growth and easing cost-of-living pressures. With a primary focus on personal income tax cuts, energy bill relief, and healthcare investments, the government has positioned this budget as one that prioritizes both individuals and businesses.


Many initiatives had been previously announced, but Treasurer Jim Chalmers has sweetened the deal with $17 billion in tax cuts. Healthcare also sees significant investment, with expanded bulk billing, more Urgent Care Clinics, and cheaper medicines.


However, increased funding for tax compliance and extended deficits signals a need for fiscal prudence. This guide provides a detailed breakdown of key measures, their implications, and what they mean for individuals, businesses, and the broader economy.


As always, if you would like to discuss how the Budget might impact your finances, don’t hesitate to contact our office on 07 4729 2222 and we will assist you with your questions.
