What’s Changing and Why It Matters to You

We aren’t asking for more paperwork because they want to. They’re asking because, from 1 July 2026, the law says they have to.

Something significant is about to change in the way accounting practices across Australia operate — and whether you realise it or not, it’s going to affect you as a client.

As we prepare for some significant legislative changes coming to the accounting and financial services industry, Advice Centre will be sharing a special series of articles over the next two weeks to help our clients and community understand what’s ahead.

From 1 July 2026, new anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing laws will change how accounting practices work with clients across Australia. While these changes are designed to strengthen protections and compliance standards, they will also introduce new processes for clients when requesting certain services.

Our upcoming articles will break these changes down into simple, practical information — explaining what’s changing, what services are affected, what documents may be required, and how these new laws may impact you in the future.

Most importantly, we want to reassure our clients that we’ll be here to guide you every step of the way.

Stay tuned across our page over the next fortnight as we share insights, answer common questions, and help make these changes easier to understand.

At Advice Centre, we believe informed clients make confident decisions — and we’re committed to keeping you informed well ahead of these new requirements.

The New Penalty Framework Is Stricter Than You Think — Here’s What’s at Stake

One of the most important things to understand about Payday Super isn’t just that you need to pay super more often. It’s that the consequences of getting it wrong are more severe than under the current system.

Under today’s rules, if you miss a quarterly super deadline, you face the Superannuation Guarantee Charge (SGC). It’s not pleasant, but the quarterly cycle means you have larger windows and fewer deadlines to manage.
