    Payday Super Is Coming: What Every Employer Needs to Know

    Soon, employers will be expected to pay superannuation to their employees at the same time as wages. This change, known as Payday Super, becomes mandatory from 1 July 2026 and represents a once-in-a-generation reform to the superannuation system. The reform has major implications for practice owners and employers, particularly those running weekly or fortnightly payrolls, as late payments attract SG charges, interest, and loss of tax deductibility. The Bongiorno Group’s Ricky Caldow and Chantelle Turner discuss the changes and what you should be aware of between now at July.  The Money Doctors is proudly brought to you by leading financial services organisation the Bongiorno Group, the preferred tax and accounting partner for the Australian Medical Association Victoria and the Victorian & Tasmanian Regional Alliance Partner of the Australian Orthopaedic Association.   For more information, please call 03 9863 3111 or visit https://bongiorno.com.au/   This general advice has been prepared without taking account of your objectives, financial situation or needs.

    Social media tips for today’s medical professionals

    Social media has become one of the most effective ways for medical professionals to build trust, visibility and genuine connection – when it’s used with intention and care. Family lawyer Vic Rajah shares how the landscape has shifted from traditional media to digital platforms, and why clinicians should view themselves as a brand.  Vic explains how different demographics use Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn, and why authenticity matters more than polished perfection. He also outlines the legal and ethical guardrails, while highlighting how thoughtful content can humanise a practice and support patient confidence.  Vic Rajah Family Lawyers https://www.vicrajah.com.au/  The Money Doctors is proudly brought to you by leading financial services organisation the Bongiorno Group, the preferred tax and accounting partner for the Australian Medical Association Victoria and the Victorian & Tasmanian Regional Alliance Partner of the Australian Orthopaedic Association.  For more information, please call 03 9863 3111 or visit https://bongiorno.com.au/  This general advice has been prepared without taking account of your objectives, financial situation or needs.

    Invest with confidence in uncertain markets

    Higher uncertainty and greater volatility may define the current investment market, but this environment also presents meaningful opportunities for informed investors. Beatrice Yeo, Investment Strategist for the Multi-Asset Solutions Business at BlackRock, explains why long-term structural “megaforces” such as artificial intelligence, geopolitical fragmentation and demographic divergence provide a clearer guide than short-term headlines.  Beatrice outlines to Vanessa Smith, Director at the Bongiorno Group, how BlackRock is positioning across regions and asset classes – dialling exposures to the US, favouring emerging markets, maintaining gold as a strategic hedge and incorporating inflation-linked bonds for protection.  BlackRock https://www.blackrock.com/au The Money Doctors is proudly brought to you by leading financial services organisation the Bongiorno Group, the preferred tax and accounting partner for the Australian Medical Association Victoria and the Victorian & Tasmanian Regional Alliance Partner of the Australian Orthopaedic Association.  For more information, please call 03 9863 3111 or visit https://bongiorno.com.au/  This general advice has been prepared without taking account of your objectives, financial situation or needs.
