Response to Impact of COVID-19

The business disruption of COVID-19 is real and moving fast.  We understand the social and economic implications this is causing and the importance of implementing management policies and strategies to get through this crisis from a financial and operational perspective.


How we can assist you

The significant threat of COVID-19 and its impact on many businesses is of huge concern. The current uncertainty of the global economy is creating risks that entities may not have encountered before. Management and governance bodies need to assess:

  • What type of financial effect might COVID-19 have on my entity?  
  • What do cash flow forecasts look like with new business disruption assumptions and worst case scenarios previously not contemplated?
  • What levers can I pull to improve cash flows during the crisis?
  • Is my entity still a going concern having taken into account the above?

Maintaining control over finances and financial reporting is more important than ever. We are here to assist you and advise you during these uncertain times. Please feel free to contact us if required.

 In addition to the links below , we will forward to you in due course a summary of the latest tax and cash flow incentives we have prepared which are available to many businesses.  

The greatest thing we can do for you, our clients is talk to you about how to solve your most challenging problems right now.

    A strategy often used to reduce taxable income (and, in turn, tax payable) in an income year is to bring forward any expected or planned deductible expenditure from a later income year. However, any individuals with potentially reduced income for the 2026 tax season may want to instead consider deferring any deductible expenditure (if possible).
