A Boardroom Lunch with Ally Flint

Against a backdrop of uncontrollable global turmoil – from a pandemic to natural disasters, war, an energy crisis and inflationary pressure – it’s clear the Federal Government has put the focus on everyday Australians in the October 2022 budget. Whilst the Treasurer said “this is a responsible Budget that is right for the times and readies us for the future”, the outlook is increasingly challenging as slowing global growth, high inflation and interest rates weigh on economic activity.

So what economic indicators and other data should we keep a close eye on in 2024? Join us for a market outlook and demographic trend discussion with BDO’s Economist, Ally Flint, to prepare for what lies ahead. Ally will also discuss the implications of October’s Federal Budget and the measures introduced to assist businesses by alleviating skills shortages through increased migration intake and a focus on upskilling.
