IMPORTANT: AN UPDATE ON MCMILLANS RESPONSE TO COVID-19

In light of the recent developments around the Coronavirus (or COVID-19) and the uncertainty we are all facing day to day, we felt it important to assure you that we expect no major interruptions to the services that we provide to you.

GOOD ADVICE IS NEEDED NOW MORE THAN EVER

Business and Tax

The Australian Government has just released their $17.6 billion economic stimulus package in response to the Coronavirus. It is designed to help employers to keep their workforce levels. There are key tax benefits that business owners need to access over the next few months. Our expert Accountants are here to help business owners receive the maximum benefits they can.

For any questions you may have about accounting, tax or business matters, please feel free to contact our Business Services Team on (03) 5174 6699.

Wealth Advice
The share markets have crashed due to fear and uncertainty in the marketplace. As has always happened before, when this crisis is over the market will quickly pick up again. Keeping a long term focus and not panicking now is the key to success.

For any questions you may have about the wealth and investment matters, please feel free to contact our Financial Planning Team on (03) 5174 6699.

IMPORTANT - GET YOUR ENDURING POWER OF ATTORNEY (EPOA) AND WILL UPDATED NOW

If you have to self-quarantine or are admitted to hospital, and you don't have an EPOA then no-one else can make important business or financial decisions on your behalf.

We strongly recommend that you have an up to date EPOA and Will, and that your family know where these are stored.

We suggest you contact your Solicitor to assist you with your Will and EPOA.

NEXT STEPS

These are times when we need to stay calm and rely on reliable news sources and information from State and Australian Government websites. What you see on social media may be panicky and unreliable information - stay away from this!

Our team at McMillans are here to help you. Please reply to this email or phone us on (03) 5174 6699 if you need any assistance!
