Today marks the first day of the 2023 financial year, so happy New Year! With the advent of modern accounting software, the ‘end of the financial year’ isn’t the palaver that it once was and now tends to pass relatively uneventfully.

A month or so back, it was announced that there would be support offered for small to mid-sized Auckland based businesses for assistance with planning and implementation.

Today saw the next iteration of support measures for businesses announced. The announcements were scant on details, but we expect that will be released over the coming week to 10 days.

  • Aro Advisers

Just in case you missed it… Auckland is still in lockdown. Many of us are itching to get out and about a bit more, or for parents, get kids back to school. But it looks likely that we’re going to be living with some form of restrictions in place for a wee while yet. If […]
