It’s the 2026–27 Federal Budget Breakdown. With Labor delivering its first Budget since the 2025 election, it’s more important than ever for industry and the broader community to understand where the Government’s priorities now sit. Will we see a shift in economic direction or investment strategy? Could renewed political pressure drive changes in taxation, regulation or national spending?
Join us for a comprehensive Budget briefing with HSBC Australia’s Chief Economist for ANZ & Global Commodities, Paul Bloxham, who will deliver a 20-minute keynote unpacking the major announcements, followed by a panel discussion with industry leaders (to be announced).
As the Government has not yet released the official 2026 Federal Budget date, our events team will confirm the event timing once the Budget is announced.
Stay informed and ensure your organisation is prepared for the year ahead by joining this essential post-Budget analysis.
