This is a service specifically targeted at the needs of busy non-executive directors. We aim to give you a “heads up” on the things that matter for NEDs in the week ahead - all in two minutes or less. 

In this Edition, we consider the new opportunity for charities to showcase their work to donors, supporters and the broader public on the ACNC Charity Register; the Financial Action Task Force beginning public consultation regarding proliferation financing risk, digital currencies and digital currency exchange providers; and further evolution in Australia’s class action landscape. We also look ahead to the impacts of the International Monetary Fund’s upgraded economic outlook for Australia.
