About this episode

The episode discusses the changing landscape of income generation in the Australian market amidst declining dividend rates and new tax implications.

The old formula for seeking income in the Australian market is fading: Dividend rates have dropped across the ASX. Yet, recent tax changes mean that investors will want to raise income from local markets.  Hugh Robertson of the Centaur Financial Services group joins Associate Editor, James Kirby in this episode. In today's show, we cover: How can I chase income safely? The income risk ladder - Bonds to high dividend funds  Molino's move on SMSFs - More fees and a 'test'    Is there any escape from the minimum 30 per cent CGT rate?
