Half disclosure

And now we turn to the pages of the financial press where, in a bid to fatten our wallets, Australia's business barons have been doling out market intelligence: There are clear reasons for a more bullish sentiment to take hold in private capital investment in 2025. - The Australian Financial Review, 20 March 2025 Rightio then … … prudent investors recognise that today's investments form the bedrock for tomorrow's portfolio health. - The Australian Financial Review, 20 March 2025 And in a stroke of great fortune, the AFR's correspondent happens to be one such prudent professional investor who's just a click away via this helpful link. In fact, The Australian Financial Review's 'Industry Insight' column is a veritable well of wisdom drawing as it does right from the source. Last month it warned not to be left behind by the AI revolution: … for those prepared to adapt, complexity is not a threat; it's a chance to thrive. … this is the moment to shift gears. - The Australian Financial Review, 25 June 2025 And as luck would have it, our scribe just so happened to work for an IT consultancy—no doubt happy to muck in and help. Two weeks earlier, the AFR sounded the alarm on underinsurance: In a worst-case scenario, investors may have to sell their property … - The Australian Financial Review, 12 June 2025 And a handy thing it was, that the author happened to work for a company that flogs insurance. And on it goes. The booming Asia Pacific market, by fundies who specialise in the Asia Pacific market. Electric vehicle subsidies by the CEO of an electric vehicle manufacturer. And the very many advantages of real-time banking rendered into poetry by a real-time banker. So why on earth is Australia's premier financial rag printing columns which read like advertising dross? I'll give you one guess. Because that's what they are. 'Industry Insight' might have done little to help readers make coin, but they have certainly been a nice little earner for the AFR. And how do we know? Because open 'Industry Insight' on the AFR's website and the sponsorship is plain as day. A mere oversight, I hear you say? The Fin's poor harried subs too busy to scratch themselves let alone lay-out a proper disclosure in print. Just one problem with that theory, because for all of 2021 and 2022 The Australian Financial Review clearly marked its 'Industry Insight' feature as sponsored content, allowing readers to choose whether to read the balderdash or turn the page and find some real news instead. But from about August 2023, the disclosure mostly disappeared. Now, could it be that ads disguised as genuine articles might be better read? 'Not at all', we were assured by Nine. A spokesperson for the paper said it was a mere: … unintentional discrepancy in content published in some print editions of the AFR. We have reviewed our operational processes with the commercial team to help ensure it doesn't happen again. - Email, Nine Spokesperson, 25 July 2025 Just some print editions? Try almost two years' worth. But with its half-pregnant disclosures, perhaps we shouldn't be too harsh. After all, the AFR is all about squeezing the lemon consciously or otherwise and what better than passive income!

Wyndham City Council referred to IBAC as MP claims tens of millions 'flushed down the toilet' on failed IT project

A council in Melbourne's booming outer south-west has been referred to the state's anti-corruption watchdog over a failed IT project worth tens of millions of dollars. The issue emerged when representatives from Wyndham City Council faced a fiery parliamentary committee hearing into fraud and corruption controls in local government. Labor's MP for Point Cook, Mat Hilakari, questioned whether the council did enough to inform ratepayers about the cost blowout, which he put at $69 million. But the council defended its transparency, saying information about the project was publicly available. In 2018, the council appointed tech company Oracle Australia to provide software that could combine council functions on one platform. It was supposed to be a $20 million project, taking two years. But four years later, the project was running nearly $20 million over budget. So the council terminated the contract and engaged a new company, TechnologyOne, to do the work. Mr Hilakari told the inquiry he estimated the cost blowout for the entire project at nearly $70 million. "I would put it at probably around $69 million in overruns, and this hasn't been publicly disclosed until this point in time, is that right?" he asked. The council's chief executive, Stephen Wall, said he would take the issue of the cost on notice. "But that sounds excessive," he said. Mr Hilakari asked why the failure of the original project, and the cost overrun, had not been communicated to ratepayers. "Whose decision is it not to disclose these things to the public?" he asked. Wyndham Deputy Mayor Josh Gilligan said financial decisions were all available, but said no-one had asked about them. "I just take particular umbrage with the question that suggests that we were not or were somehow not wanting to disclose cost variation to a major project," he said. "I just completely dispute that." Mr Wall agreed. "All of council's financial transactions are transparent," he said. The ABC understands the council's handling of the issue has been referred to Victoria's Independent Broad-based Anti-corruption Commission, IBAC. The ABC understands another Wyndham councillor, Robert Szatkowski, has made a referral to Victoria's Independent Broad-based Anti-corruption Commission, IBAC, for matters that relate to the IT project. The ABC has contacted IBAC for comment. A referral to IBAC does not mean it will launch an investigation and the ABC is not suggesting that a referral implies any findings of wrongdoing. Councillor Gilligan pointed out to Mr Hilakari that the state government was also facing cost blowouts on various projects. "You would agree that cost overruns on a state level of hundreds of millions of dollars occur, on the regular?" he asked. "And we're very transparent about that," Mr Hilakari said. "As we are," Cr Gilligan insisted. "Well then you'd better tell me where the project fail of Oracle and the tens and tens of millions of dollars of ratepayer funds that were flushed down the toilet to be frank, where was that publicly disclosed?" Mr Wall said he would take that on notice, but said there was a clear business case and a tender process, and that the current IT project was a success. Wyndham council is facing backlash for diverting funds from developers in Point Cook to be used elsewhere in the municipality. Cr Gilligan told the hearing the council had a prerogative to spend money raised from Point Cook developments in another location. "That money can be spent in a location that is different to the one that you want it spent in," he said. "That is our prerogative, just as state and federal governments have their own prerogative within the realm of law to make decisions, this council has made a decision to look at spending it on an intergenerational project somewhere else." The committee is due to table its full report in November.

Glamour couple Jordan De Goey, Aisha Jade McKinnon drop ‘surprise' life update

Collingwood forward Jordan De Goey and his former reality TV star girlfriend Aisha Jade McKinnon have announced the 'surprise' news they are expecting a baby girl. De Goey, 29, has been held to just five games for the Pies in an injury-plagued 2025 season, although he is in line for an AFL return this weekend. FOX FOOTY, available on Kayo Sports, is the only place to watch every match of every round in the 2025 Toyota AFL Premiership Season LIVE in 4K, with no ad-breaks during play. New to Kayo? Join now and get your first month for just $1. New Zealander McKinnon, who found fame as a contestant on Big Brother and is now a fashion designer and influencer, met the footy bad boy in early 2024 after linking up on Instagram. They went public with their romance at Collingwood's best and fairest awards last year and have since bought a farm together. McKinnon's Instagram bio says 'Fashion, Beauty and little Farm life' and the celebrity couple used that platform to announce their happy news. 'In the midst of our changing lives we were blessed with the greatest surprise of them all,' they captioned a joint post on Sunday. 'Baby girl coming soon.' The post featured an ultrasound, a sweet photo of De Goey holding McKinnon's stomach and a video that appears to show the footy star getting a gender reveal gift from his partner (see below). The announcement has received more than 35,000 likes and over 800 comments, including a number from De Goey's Collingwood teammates. 'Unreal! Congrats to both of you,' wrote Josh Daicos. Model and Daicos' partner Annalise Dalins added: 'The best news!! Congratulations you two! Sending (so much) love.' Oleg Markov and Isaac Quaynor both wrote: 'Congrats guys.' Musician Bec Wilcock gushed: 'This makes me so happy!!! Bring in the girl squad.' McKinnon told the Herald Sun last year the couple have similar interests and are loving working on their farm about an hour outside Melbourne. 'He's really lovely. We definitely value our privacy, we connected on that, and we both have unique jobs and support each other,'' she said. 'We were like pen pals until we met. We're getting our hands dirty at the farm transforming it and having fun.' De Goey has played 176 games for the Pies, including the 2023 premiership, but hasn't featured since round eight due to an Achilles injury. He was then concussed at training in a collision with Brayden Maynard, setting back his return further, but he turned out in the VFL last weekend and is in line for a senior recall. Pick No. 5 in the 2014 national draft, De Goey has had a series of alcohol and violence related issues in the past, including an arrest in New York in 2021 over an alleged nightclub assault.
