ICON WEBINAR: Demystifying the Federal budget and major economic trends

Elevate your impact as a marketing and BD professional by improving your understanding of the big-issues at play.

On 6th October 2020, Treasurer Josh Frydenberg handed down a Federal budget that reflects an extraordinary year in Australia’s history. To paraphrase the Prime Minister, this year’s budget is one of the most important, if not the most important, since the Second World War.

But do you really understand what it all means?

Deloitte Macroeconomics senior analysts, Sheraan Underwood (Canberra) and Aiden Depiazzi (Perth) will unpack this year’s budget theme of ‘jobs and investment’, and the necessary steps Australia must take on the long road back to restore employment to pre-pandemic levels.

You will gain a greater understanding of what the budget means for the Australian economy, businesses and you as an individual - as well as the major macroeconomic trends impacting Australia. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions!
