The 30 June reporting season will bear the full brunt of COVID-19.

To add to the complexity, accountants and auditors have been deluged with information. Are you prepared?

  • Messages from the regulators – ASIC, ACNC, and APRA

  • Regulatory matters – solvency statements, continuous disclosure, Operating and Financial Reviews, and non-GAAP performance measures, and
  • FAQs.

When: Thursday 18 June
