In the September 2025 Tax Insights survey, we asked Australian businesses Which area of tax governance or transparency matters most for your organisation?
Results
Results revealed an evenly divided focus across three key areas — data management and systems, governance frameworks, and transparency obligations — highlighting the multifaceted nature of modern tax management. Respondents also emphasised the ongoing importance of readiness for ATO reviews and audits.
| Area of Focus | Percentage of Responses |
|---|---|
| Data management & systems | 26% |
| Risk management & governance frameworks | 26% |
| Transparency & reporting obligations | 26% |
| Responding to ATO reviews and audits | 22% |
Key insights
The findings suggest that Australian organisations are continuing to balance their tax priorities across governance, transparency, and compliance, recognising that each plays a critical role in maintaining trust and managing risk in an increasingly data-driven tax environment.
