Australia is at the crossroads. As a nation we can no longer accept record low business investment as a share of GDP, where more money leaves the country than comes in.
If we don’t improve our productivity, our wages will be lower, our enviable low unemployment will be at risk, goods will be more expensive and interest rates will be higher for longer.
Business and the broader community need to see a budget strategy focused on accelerating economic growth, fiscal discipline and expenditure reform.
With heightened global uncertainty the new normal, the only way Australia can forge ahead and fortify its resilience is by managing the economic factors that are within our control.
The economy can achieve a world-leading recovery if short-term supply pinch points are addressed while policies drive long-term investment, productivity and growth.

We are a great place to work, invest and live. It’s now up to all of us to ensure we build on our strengths as we emerge from the pandemic.
Bradfield, a city being built in Sydney’s west, will be Australia’s first clean-energy, hydrogen-ready, cyber-secure, autonomous metropolis.
Australia is on the cusp of a golden era of prosperity. Our leaders must not squander our global pandemic head start.
