In today’s topic Financial Planner Luke Smith joins Leon to explore the opportunities that the end of financial year presents. It’s a great time to review and plan, to ensure you make the most of your tax deductions and consider your goals for the new financial year which is just around the corner.

- Considerations for the self-employed, bill now or wait for July? Asset write-offs

- Reviewing your insurance to make sure it still meets your needs
- Making tax deductible contributions to super or PSS contributions if you’re a member of that fund
- Reviewing your home loan interest rate
- Using offset accounts more strategically to fund tax deductions
