## Posts
- [Family Constitution vs Shareholders Agreement](https://www.dbaadvisory.com/family-constitution-vs-shareholders-agreement/): Fixed-term contract limits restrict both the maximum period of a fixed-term contract and the use of consecutive contracts for the same role, with anti-avoidance provisions and defined exceptions.
- [Fixed-Term Contract Limits](https://www.dbaadvisory.com/fixed-term-contract-limits/): Fixed-term contract limits restrict both the maximum period of a fixed-term contract and the use of consecutive contracts for the same role, with anti-avoidance provisions and defined exceptions.
- [ATO Payment Plan](https://www.dbaadvisory.com/ato-payment-plan-business-debt/): An ATO payment plan allows a tax debt to be paid by instalments. Access generally requires lodgements to be up to date, which is why lodging on time matters even when payment is not possible.
- [Small Business CGT Concessions](https://www.dbaadvisory.com/small-business-cgt-concessions/): Australia's small business CGT concessions under Division 152 can reduce or eliminate capital gains tax on the sale of an active business asset. Access depends on satisfying eligibility conditions tested at the time of the sale, which is why planning years ahead matters.
- [SMSF Compliance Checklist](https://www.dbaadvisory.com/smsf-compliance-checklist/): An SMSF compliance checklist for Australian trustees covers the obligations recurring annually: appointing an approved auditor, lodging the annual return, reviewing the investment strategy, valuing assets at market value, monitoring contribution caps and the in-house asset limit, and reviewing nominations. Confirm current requirements against ATO guidance.
- [Payday Super SMSF Guide](https://www.dbaadvisory.com/payday-super-smsf/): For SMSF trustees and employers, Payday Super requires contributions to reach each employee's fund within 7 business days after payday rather than quarterly. For funds receiving contributions from a related employer this compresses the timing margin considerably.
- [Suspicious Matter Report](https://www.dbaadvisory.com/suspicious-matter-report/): A suspicious matter report must be lodged with AUSTRAC when a reporting entity forms a suspicion on reasonable grounds in connection with a designated service. Separate tipping-off rules prohibit disclosing that a report has been made. Confirm current timeframes and requirements against AUSTRAC guidance.
- [AML/CTF Training Requirements](https://www.dbaadvisory.com/aml-ctf-training-requirements/): AML/CTF training requirements apply to all staff involved in providing designated services, including support staff who handle customer information. Training must cover obligations, red flags and internal reporting, and must be documented in a way that evidences understanding rather than attendance alone.
- [AUSTRAC Registration for Accountants and Lawyers](https://www.dbaadvisory.com/austrac-registration-for-accountants/): AUSTRAC registration for accountants applies to firms providing designated services under the AML/CTF Act. Enrolment is the first step; obligations including customer due diligence, reporting and record-keeping begin from the point the entity starts providing designated services.
- [AML/CTF Risk Assessment](https://www.dbaadvisory.com/aml-ctf-risk-assessment/): An AML/CTF risk assessment identifies the money laundering and terrorism financing risk a reporting entity faces across four dimensions: the designated services provided, customer types, delivery channels and jurisdictions. It must be documented and kept current rather than completed once.
- [30 June Tax Planning](https://www.dbaadvisory.com/30-june-tax-planning/): Effective 30 June tax planning separates dated actions, which must be completed before year end, from tidy-up items that can be done afterwards. Trust resolutions, superannuation payments and asset installation are dated; record-keeping generally is not.
- [AUSTRAC Audit Process](https://www.dbaadvisory.com/austrac-audit-process/): AML/CTF penalties in Australia fall into civil and criminal categories, with AUSTRAC able to pursue enforceable undertakings, infringement notices and civil penalty proceedings. Penalty exposure generally turns on whether a failure was systemic and whether the entity self-reported. Confirm current penalty amounts against AUSTRAC guidance.
- [AML/CTF Penalties](https://www.dbaadvisory.com/aml-ctf-penalties/): AML/CTF penalties in Australia fall into civil and criminal categories, with AUSTRAC able to pursue enforceable undertakings, infringement notices and civil penalty proceedings. Penalty exposure generally turns on whether a failure was systemic and whether the entity self-reported. Confirm current penalty amounts against AUSTRAC guidance.

- [Achieving Operational Resilience](https://www.dbaadvisory.com/operational-resilience/): Operational resilience for professional services firms requires more than disaster recovery. DBA Advisory's five-pillar maturity framework shows what institutional control actually looks like.
- [5 Financial Governance Risks of SMEs](https://www.dbaadvisory.com/financial-governance-risks-of-smes/): Financial governance risks expose Australian SMEs to compliance failure, cash flow crises, and audit exposure. DBA Advisory identifies the five most critical — and how to fix them.
