In this episode of Talk Property To Me, hosts Brad East and Aaron Downie break down why the RBA has held interest rates, why inflation remains stubbornly high, and what this really means for Australia's property market moving into 2025 and 2026. We unpack the key drivers behind the RBA's decision, including rising electricity prices, cost-of-living pressures, and why rate hikes don't always fix inflation. The discussion also dives into the latest APRA changes, including debt-to-income (DTI) limits, tighter trust lending rules, and how these policies could impact investors, first-home buyers, and affordability across Australia.

In this episode of The Property Nerds, Arjun Paliwal, Jack Fouracre, and Adrian Lee explore the evolving landscape of property investment, focusing on regulatory changes, lending policies, and market dynamics shaping investor strategies. The discussion highlights the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority's (APRA's) new policy limiting high-risk investor lending to 20 per cent of banks' portfolios, potentially shifting opportunities toward brokers and non-bank lenders. The trio emphasises the importance of maintaining a long-term perspective, as life changes and cash flow constraints can affect borrowing capacity despite debt-to-income (DTI) ratios. Strategies such as rentvesting are discussed as ways to maintain a DTI under six while building a property portfolio. Lender Mortgage Insurance (LMI) waivers and extended 40-year loan terms are highlighted as tools that can reduce upfront costs and increase borrowing flexibility. Additionally, the discussion addresses the nuances of shading rental income in DTI calculations, helping investors understand their true borrowing capacity. The co-hosts stress that professional guidance is critical for navigating regulatory shifts and optimising investment decisions.

Individually, Sarah McLeod and Dallas Frasca are two of the most powerful voices in Australian rock. Not only have they both had successful careers - McLeod with The Superjesus and Frasca with her band of the same name - but they have both contributed much more to the Australian music scene via other roles within the industry. ARIA winner and South Australian Music Hall of Fame inductee Sarah McLeod, both as a solo performer and frontwoman of Australian rock legends The Superjesus, has remained a passionate advocate for change and progress within the Australian music space while APRA and AWMA nominated artist Dallas Frasca is a kindred spirit of sorts for Sarah, again another artist who has brought bold and visceral energy to her expansive catalogue of music and live performances across many years.So it should come as no surprise to find that both of their lives and careers have become entwined for the 2026 GREEN ELECTRIC TOUR, which represents both McLeod and Frasca's ongoing commitment to sustainability; more specifically, sustainable touring. It is a highly ambitious journey into the unknown, with little by way of previous undertakings by other bands from which to use as a reference.Instead, the two have chosen to dive in headfirst, supported by Music Australia, The Harbour Agency and Spank Betty Records. The tour also supports Seed Mob, Australia's first Indigenous youth-led climate justice organisation in their ongoing fight for climate justice. From recycled merchandise and sustainable travel routes to meat-free catering and eco-certified accommodation, every detail has been designed to minimise impact. Fans are invited to join the movement by wearing their best sustainable fashion to the gigs, and carpooling, taking public transport, walking, or riding bikes to venues wherever possible — making the audience part of the solution, not just the show.For both McLeod and Frasca, the launch of the GREEN ELECTRIC TOUR also aims to inspire other musicians, and their fans, to reconsider their own approach to experiencing live music and touring – with a shift in mindset and a turn toward more sustainable pathways, the future of this industry is greener, healthier, and more long-lasting.HEAVY was fortunate enough to nail down both Sarah and Dallas during a welcome break to their busy schedules, and we started by asking if they were prepared for the magnitude of the task they have set for themselves."It's hard, actually," Sarah replied."It is," Dallas reiterated. "I think… putting a tour together is a massive workload as it is, and even doing four weeks of touring is huge in the matrix of that. But this is a whole other element, and maybe when we get to the end of it, I think we would have gone, okay, we've sort of normalized this new thinking around things, and it will be easier. But we've got the machete out in the jungle at the moment, and we're just figuring things out. There's no one perfect way to do it either. Sarah and I have got a few non-negotiables that we can't move on, with venues and things like that. And then we're just sort of piecing things around it. So we'll make some mistakes along the way. We'll probably get to the other end and think we should have done it that way, and hopefully we'll walk in that direction afterwards, but we're learning. We are both definitely learning along the way. And it's a lot more work than your normal tour. Yes, we have put our hands on our faces many times (laughs)."In the full interview, Sarah and Dallas run through the idea behind sustainable touring and how they plan to make the run of shows as faithful to their cause as possible. They discussed some of their ideas to do that and ways in which the crowd can participate, while highlighting the fact that the very nature of touring makes it difficult to adhere strictly to some of the protocol.We talked about their musical union and the benefits of musicians investing actual time into sustainable touring, suggesting ideas along the way which would be beneficial to the planet as a whole if more people invested in them. Talk turned to an unplanned sonic union that has already blossomed, with plans already in place to film a music video for the newly written track, which you will have to watch to find out more about.The basic structure of the live shows was discussed, along with the two drummers who are special guests for the tour, with Sarah and Dallas both expressing excitement for the plethora of possibilities this one journey into sustainability can raise.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, host Phil Tarrant is joined by Eva Loisance from Finni Mortgages to unpack new lending guidelines by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) and the concerns these sparked among property investors trying to scale their portfolios. Tarrant and Loisance begin by discussing the new debt-to-income restrictions, explaining how the cap on high-risk lending is designed to protect financial stability, while creating uncertainty for active and growth-focused investors. The duo then turns to the growing contradiction between tighter lending rules and government initiatives such as the 5 per cent deposit scheme and shared equity programs, which aim to fast-track first home buyers into the market. Loisance highlights criticism that these high-leverage schemes could place Australians into excessive debt, particularly if property values soften or economic conditions tighten. They wrap up by examining the pullback by major banks from trust and company lending, urging investors to stay informed, work with experienced brokers, and remain flexible as alternative lending options emerge.

A major regulatory shift is set to reshape the borrowing landscape, with APRA unveiling a new debt-to-income (DTI) cap that's sparked debate across the finance sector. In this episode of Finance Specialist, host Liam Garman sits down with co-host Trent Carter to unpack what the cap really means for brokers, borrowers, and lenders navigating a tightening credit environment. Garman and Carter unpack APRA's move to limit banks to writing only 20 per cent of new loans above a DTI of six, industry reaction from commentators concerned about borrower access, and why perceptions of restricted credit don't always align with the numbers. They also dive into the ripple effects for first home buyers, investor activity, and SME owners who rely on property-backed lending, and why this shift could accelerate a move toward genuine business lending grounded in cash flow and balance sheet strength. Carter underscores how brokers can differentiate themselves by interpreting regulatory change and guiding clients through more complex borrowing decisions as the industry recalibrates ahead of February.

From APRA's regulatory movements, the surprising importance of property managers, and the strategic shifts for brokers under the microscope, the trio reflect on the complexities of the Australian lending market and the growing demand for specialised expertise. The hosts dive into the standout revelations from the discussion – including Whitlock's rapid, high-yield Melbourne property purchase – and the wake-up call for investors on the critical advisory role of property managers, often perceived as just handling mundane tasks. They also take a look at the APRA decision to cap DTI ratios, why this might be a boon for non-bank lenders, and the challenging scenario where the CBA is excluding brokers from its Help to Buy scheme, hinting at a wider strategy by major banks. The episode rounds out with a look at the evolving nature of mortgage broking – from technology driving automation of simple deals to the necessity for brokers to focus on complex, niche markets where their strategic advice remains invaluable.

In the final Wealth, Wine & Wisdom episode of 2025, Andy and Jason debrief the year's most outrageous financial events, starting with the ATO's latest move to aggressively redefine income splitting for family trusts and the bombshell news that Australian governments have collected a record trillion dollars in taxes. They dive into the property market's two conflicting stories: record-breaking sales in Brisbane and the return of luxury real estate versus APRA's new, controversial Debt-to-Income (DTI) limits aimed at restricting investor lending. They also expose the ongoing "Build-to-Rent" scandal, where billions in Australian real estate have been sold to foreign corporations, and the hosts lay out a powerful new investment thesis for 2026: strategically acquiring "picks and shovels" real estate that will be necessary for the coming AI infrastructure revolution.   Episode Highlights Record Tax Take: Australia's three levels of government collected a "record trillion" dollars in taxes. The ATO vs. Family Trusts: The hosts blast the ATO for trying to force family trusts to "confess their past errors" and for adjusting their interpretation of income splitting, an attack that could force business owners to pay tax on all business profit under "Personal Services Income" rules. Tax-Free $16 Million Gain: Discussion on a $25 million record sale in Brisbane where the sellers, if it was their principal place of residence, could have made a tax-free gain of $16 million in just three years. Overseas Money Continues to Flow: Highlight of a mother who bought an $8 million Sydney house for her daughter who is studying from overseas. APRA's Investor Crackdown: Criticism of the banking regulator (APRA) for introducing the first-ever Debt-to-Income (DTI) limits on home loans for investors, arguing it is a "socialist policy" that will only worsen the housing supply issue. Banks Ignore Regulator: Banks are forecast to increase home lending in 2026, effectively ignoring APRA's new limits. Build-to-Rent Scandal: Exposure of the "Build-to-Rent" scheme, which gives tax breaks to offshore corporations, resulting in $30+ billion of Australian real estate being sold to foreign-owned entities. The AI Revolution is Not a Bubble: The AI revolution is here to stay and will be more aggressive than the agricultural and industrial revolutions combined. The hosts note that Vietnam is teaching all primary school children to use AI tools from year one, highlighting Australia's "archaic attitude". Investment Theme for 2026: A new forward-thinking investment thesis that involves acquiring real estate near pre-existing power transmission cables or data lines, which will become valuable "picks and shovels" for the massive infrastructure spend required by AI. Property Market Opportunity: Melbourne is highlighted as a potentially undervalued market, with comparable property lagging in price by as much as $500,000 against other major cities, making it an opportunity based on fundamental supply, population, and geography. Holiday Message: A final plea to "switch off the news" and "switch off the social media" over the break and be present with people you like.

In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, Phil Tarrant is joined by Annie Kane, managing editor of mortgages, and Liam Garman, managing editor of real estate. The host and the Momentum Media editors explore the complexities of the current Australian property market. They examine how government schemes, including the expanded 5% Deposit Scheme, are driving demand but causing delays as lenders struggle to keep up. Kane highlights that brokers are the main channel for the scheme, but overwhelming demand has led some lenders to pause pre-approvals. Tarrant raises concerns that the scheme could encourage unsustainable debt levels among first-time buyers. Investor lending is also on the rise, with the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) monitoring trends and considering measures to curb high debt-to-income ratios and rapid investor lending. Garman points to supply-demand pressures exacerbated by migration and infrastructure, warning of potential negative equity for some buyers. The discussion also covers the role of buyer's agents, emphasising the importance of choosing licensed professionals to avoid costly advice missteps. As the market evolves, the trio notes that navigating government interventions, lending practices, and ongoing supply-demand imbalances will be critical for both investors and home buyers.

Kia ora,Welcome to Friday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news the global economy has one month to go to bolster its 2025 economic performance, all down to retail sales now.First, of course, the US is now in its Thanksgiving holiday weekend, the start of their big retail period until Christmas. A lot rides on the consumer spending activity in this period. It is an impulse with global impact. But the lead-in has not been helpful about giving clues on how it will turn out.Meanwhile, Canadian average weekly earnings came in stronger than expected, up +3.1% in September from a year ago and a touch higher than the August +2.7% rise on the same basis. It was a broad-based rise. It is not a bad result for them given their CPI rise was +2.4% in September, and fell to +2.2% in October, so their earnings are recording real gains.The 'Buy Canadian' movement will be getting the ultimate test this weekend during the 'Black Friday' sales period.In China, industrial profits dropped -5.5% in October from a year ago, taking the top off the +22% jump in September. and the +13% rise in August, and being the first slowdown in growth in three months. A quarter of all companies are now posting losses, a record high. The cost of debt is also a reason some are noting that profits are under pressure. And that may loom larger, because Beijing as told their SOE banks to lend more to other SOEs to prop up consumption demand.We can also see office rents in major cities falling, vacancy rates rising, as pain spreads in the commercial property sector. Vanke is wobbling more now. And separately, despite high sales and rapid growth, Chinese car manufacturers are suffering record low margins. Their industry is very vulnerable to a demand slowdown.In Taiwan, consumer sentiment edged up in October from September, but it is still quite low and far lower than year-ago levels. They haven't got back anywhere near the level they started the year with. Relentless mainland pressure to 'unify' and kill their independence isn't helping.The Bank of Korea held its base policy rate at 2.5% at today's meeting, the final policy session of the year. It did this despite concerns over the broader Korean economic outlook, including a persistent property market slump and a volatile currency.In Malaysia, producer prices were little-changed in October, essentially ending the deflation they had in the prior seven months.In the EU, overall economic sentiment held as did consumer inflation expectations. They are modest and back to pre-pandemic levels in a stable mode and putting behind them the rather strong deflationary expectations over the past two years. That sanguine view was reinforced by the release overnight of the ECB meeting minutes. They seem happy with where they are at and no rate changes seem imminent.In Australia, prudential regulator APRA has said it will limit high debt-to-income home loans to constrain riskier lending that is starting to show up in that market. Some of it has been induced by the Canberra government's taxpayer-subsidised 5% deposit guarantee scheme.And staying in Australia, new private capital spending is rising and more quickly than expected. The rise was largely driven by non-mining industries, which recorded a +13.0% jump, while spending on mining equipment and machinery grew just +4.5%.Global container freight rates dipped -2% last week to be -47% lower than year-ago levels. Outbound China rates are a touch weaker while trans-Atlantic rates a touch stronger. However, bulk freight rates have risen +6.0% over the past week and are now sitting a touch over +50% higher than year ago levels and are back to levels we last saw briefly in November 2023, and prior to that during the pandemic.The UST 10yr yield is still just on 4.00% with US markets closed.The price of gold will start today at US$4156/oz, and down -US$10 from yesterday.American oil prices have risen almost +US$1 from yesterday to be just under US$59/bbl, while the international Brent price is also up, but less, now just over US$63/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is up another +30 bps from yesterday, now at just over 57.2 USc. Against the Aussie we are up +20 bps at just over 87.6 AUc. Against the euro we have risen +30 bps to 49.4 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just under 61.9, and up +30 bps.The bitcoin price starts today at US$91,468 and up +4.5% from yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been moderate at just on +/- 2.3%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston.

Fenton and Whitten are together in person for a special edition of Wine and Wisdom, debriefing the week and navigating the political uncertainty and clickbait journalism surrounding wealth creation.   They dive deep into the booming Australian residential real estate market, tearing down the "mortgage stress" narrative and debating the potential for a property price crash by looking at the lessons from Japan. The hosts also rant on government overreach, including the ATO's latest attempt to police holiday home tax deductions , and the lunacy of policies that punish Australians for simply creating wealth. Finally, they look at the simple, disciplined strategy for maximizing your Superannuation and discuss the future of work in the age of AI.   Episode Highlights Australian Residential Real Estate Hits a New High: The value of residential real estate has cracked $12 trillion for the first time in Australia's history, making it the country's largest asset class. Myth-Busting "Mortgage Stress": The hosts challenge the media's narrative of widespread "mortgage stress," pointing to the total outstanding mortgage debt of $2.5 trillion against the $12 trillion asset value, suggesting an overall low Loan-to-Value Ratio (LVR). The "Four Menaces" Erode Wealth: The hosts warn against reacting to the "Four Menaces" that erode wealth in Australia, crowning politicians as the number one menace. The "What If" Scenario: Could Australian Property Prices Crash? Discussion on the possibility of a property price decline, dismissing the idea as "rubbish" but analyzing what happened in Japan for comparison. Market Manipulation by Government: Criticism of "fake economics" where market manipulation through subsidies or legislation (like first-home buyer grants) only causes property values to rise, creating a "manipulation gap" that capitalism will always close. Conflict of Interest at the Top: Concerns are raised over former executives from ethics and regulation bodies (Fasea and ASIC) launching a trustee service, suggesting an advantageous privatization of business models based on rules they wrote. ATO Overreach on Holiday Homes: A rant against the Australian Tax Office's draft guidance that proposes disallowing tax deductions for holiday homes if the property is considered "mainly for personal use," especially during "peak periods". Lending Restrictions and Supply Chain: Discussion on APRA's looming lending curbs and policies like the Debt-to-Income Ratio (DTI) , arguing that five years of restricting lending has contributed to the supply chain issue in housing. Government Competing in the Housing Market: Criticism of government entities like Housing Australia buying up bulk properties and utilizing shared equity schemes where the taxpayer (via government) takes a 40% stake in the homeowner's property. Superannuation Discipline: The hosts illustrate a simple, powerful super strategy: contributing an extra $100 per week can dramatically increase retirement savings, pushing people into the politician-defined territory of being "horribly, egregiously rich". The Future of Work and AI: A warning that the Australian future is not in white-collar administration, as AI and tools like Chat GPT will take over many processes , emphasizing the increasing value and scarcity of vocational trades like plumbing.

Andy Fenton is joined by property expert Sammy Saggers (The Australian Property Game) to dissect the biggest issues in finance and real estate this week. They tackle the media's "affordability" clickbait, debating whether Australia's youth can truly afford property, and expose the massive, unintended consequence of government-backed first-home buyer grants, which have caused property prices to spike almost immediately. In a stunning exposé, they reveal a multi-billion dollar banking failure that affects homeowners across Australia. Finally, Sam breaks down the state government's new, unprecedented policies to boost housing supply through rezoning for duplexes and granny flats, and why this represents a huge, though risky, opportunity for property investors and developers.   Episode Highlights The $307 Billion Banking Scandal: APRA has launched a major audit into all six big banks after discovering that they failed to link billions of dollars in customer offset accounts, meaning customers were incorrectly charged interest. Affordability Policy Backfires: Analysis of the Federal Government's 5% deposit/guarantee scheme, which critics argue has already caused the cost of property to jump by up to 6% in just one month for the target price range. The "Black Friday Inheritance": They explain how the 5% deposit scheme is seen by some parents as a "half-priced sale" or "Black Friday inheritance" to help their children buy a home, rapidly increasing demand. The 'Youth Can't Afford Property' Myth: Debunking the pervasive media headline, arguing that opportunities exist, inflation will normalize the market, and a massive intergenerational transfer of wealth is inevitable. Investor Lending Crackdown: Discussion on APRA's concerns over high investor lending, leading to Macquarie Bank closing its trust and company lending model. Massive Supply-Side Opportunity: Breakdown of new state government "Pathways Programs" to increase density, including: NSW Duplex Rezoning: A new code allows for building two dwellings on one title (a duplex) on nearly every 400sqm block in Sydney, Wollongong, and Newcastle. Free Government Plans: The government is providing architectural working drawings for duplexes for as little as a dollar to reduce cost and time. The Problem is People, Not Property: Sammy Saggers' final wisdom is that "property is reliable," and the challenge lies in the "human being," emphasizing the importance of education, building a good network, and being in the market for the long term.

Some countries have an resurgent inflation problem

Kia ora,Welcome to Monday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news rising inflation pressures are now appearing everywhere in the West, underpinned by poor economic judgements.This week will be a busy one on the economic data front, even with the US federal agencies shut down.Locally, all eyes will be on the Q3 labour market data and most observers expect it to show our jobless rate rise to 5.3%.In Australia, the key economic event will be the RBA's rate review late on Tuesday and there will be heightened interest on how they view their rising inflation. That will drive a reassessment by financial markets about where their interest rates are heading. Australia's September trade balance is due and a big surplus is anticipated.Other central banks will chime in this week with rate reviews of their own, including Sweden, Norway and England, among others.In the US while they won't have any official data, focus will turn to the ADP Employment Report, ISM PMIs, and the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index. Canada will release its labour market data too.In China, the October trade surplus is expected to widen to around US$100 bln, although the latest official NBS manufacturing PMI showed a decline in new export orders for October. The broader RatingDog (Caixin) Manufacturing PMI is also expected to signal a further slowdown in factory activity, and its services counterpart will also be closely watched.China's official October PMIs came in over the weekend without any significant improvements from September. They say their factory PMI is now contracting marginally more and a noticeable step lower than last month, and their services PMI is barely expanding, when a small improvement was expected.Japanese industrial production rose +3.4% in September from a year ago, a much better surge in the month than the +0.5% rise that was anticipated.In the US, the Chicago PMI rose in October from its worryingly low August and September levels, but it is still contracting and it has done so for 23 consecutive months now. This month's slight improvement is on the back of a rise in new orders, modest as it may be. Basically this metric is just contracting slower now.But some companies are doing well there. An example is Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway which reported profits of US$48 bln in its latest nine month result, US$31 bln in Q3 alone. They now have cash holdings of US$382 bln. Buffett himself is fading from view now and it will be a challenge for his replacement to maintain the charisma.The EU said its October inflation level is down to 2.1%, the expected dip from September's 2.2%.In Australia, there is more evidence inflation is embedding at levels well above 3%. On Friday they released their Q3 PPI and that came in at 3.5%, unchanged from Q2, and up +1.0% for the latest quarter. Analysts had expected it to reduce.in Q3, but that isn't happening. The RBA will be as unhappy with this as it was with the equally high CPI result. Only recently a rate cut tomorrow was a sure bet, but no longer.And staying in Australia, bank lending grew +7.3% in September, up +6.3% for housing but up +9.5% for business from the same month a year ago. But there is a noticeable dip in business lending in September from August which surprised some. Going the other way, observers were equally surprised by the monthly surge in housing loans.The surge is worrying APRA. The combination of demand from the FHB guarantee scheme, and exuberance by investors is joining to create the rush. And it is only expected to increase. So the regulator is stepping in with warnings to banks to reign in the party. High DTI lending is their special focus.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.10%, unchanged from Saturday at this time. The price of gold will start today at US$4001/oz, down -US$5 from this time Saturday. That is down -US$107 from this time last week. But it is up +US$141 or +3.6% for the month.American oil prices are+50 USc firmer from Saturday at just on US$61/bbl, with the international Brent price now just over US$64.50/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is now at just on 57.2 USc, and down unchanged from Saturday. It is down -20 bps for the week, and down -70 bps or -1.2% for the month. Against the Aussie we are unchanged at 87.5 AUc. Against the euro we are also little-changed at 49.7 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just over 61.8 and down -30 bps from yesterday, down -20 bps for the week, down -40 bps for the month.The bitcoin price starts today at US$110,113 and up +0.8% from this time Saturday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been low at just on +/- 0.6%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston.

Send us a textJoin Cheryl Lee - That Radio Chick on STILL ROCKIN' IT for news, reviews, music and interviews with some of our favourite Australian musiciansGraham "Buzz" Bidstrup doesn't just tell stories—he's lived them. As the drumming powerhouse behind iconic Australian bands The Angels, Gang Gajang, and The Party Boys, Buzz takes us on an unforgettable journey through the electrifying pub rock scene of the 70s and 80s where the air was "thick with the unmistakable scent of beer, sweat, and pot."Born into a musical Adelaide family in 1952, Buzz's path to rock stardom began with a father who could have been a concert pianist (before WWII trauma silenced his playing) and a mother who sang with gusto in church. This foundation, combined with exposure to seminal artists through his older brother, set the stage for his remarkable career. With characteristic humility and humor, Buzz reveals how he transformed The Angels by suggesting Doc Neeson move from bass to frontman—a decision that created magic. "You couldn't take your eyes off him on stage," Buzz explains about the charismatic Neeson, whom he considers the greatest frontman he's ever worked with.Beyond the music that defined a generation, Buzz's story takes unexpected turns. His unique upside-down guitar playing created GangGajang's distinctive sound. His work with the Jimmy Little Foundation, promoting healthy eating among indigenous children for 25 years, reveals the depth of his character. "That's what I get up in the morning for," he shares, demonstrating how music can be a vehicle for meaningful change. Still active at 73, Buzz continues mentoring young artists as an APRA ambassador while passing his musical genes to his producer son Maxwell.Whether you're a die-hard Angels fan or simply appreciate authentic Australian stories, Buzz's memoir "No Secrets" delivers raw insights into a musical life fully lived.

Smart investors are discovering that success isn’t about chasing hype - it’s about cultivating insight. In this revealing first conversation with Lawrence Lam, founder and managing director of Lumenary and author of The Founder Effect, Bushy Martin explores why long-term investment success depends more on people, purpose, and principle than on spreadsheets and short-term returns.

Welcome to Episode 148 of the #ExpatChat Podcast, where we explore the latest tax and financial issues affecting Australian expats. In this episode, Expat Do's and Don'ts for SMSFs, Atlas Wealth Managing Directors James Ridley and Brett Evans unpack the complexities of managing Self-Managed Superannuation Funds (SMSFs) while living overseas. They provide an overview of the legal, financial, and compliance responsibilities SMSF trustees face abroad—highlighting how to avoid costly penalties and potential fund disqualification. A key focus is on the “central management and control” rule and its role in determining SMSF residency status. James and Brett breakdown the 183-day rule, the distinction between temporary absences and permanent relocations, and what happens when trustees move overseas. You'll also hear about strategies to maintain compliance, such as appointing a Power of Attorney or converting to a small APRA fund. Real-life scenarios illustrate how different choices impact compliance and tax outcomes, reinforcing the need for expert planning before relocating. Whether you're currently managing an SMSF overseas or considering a move, this episode is packed with key insights to help you stay compliant and protect your retirement wealth.
