Federation Asset Management’s Post

Federation Asset Management welcomes the government’s new $1 billion investment in the childcare sector, aimed at building new early education centres alongside a guarantee of three days of subsidised childcare for most young families. Jason Walter, Partner at Federation Asset Management, stated, “It’s promising to see childcare reform prioritised by both major parties, reflecting a growing acknowledgment of its vital role in supporting families and driving economic growth. “Childcare consistently remains a key focus during election cycles, and we anticipate a positive response from the Opposition as well. “With the government projecting that the overall $3 billion annual boost will increase childcare participation by 200,000 children—representing a 25% rise from the current 811,090 in long day care—the impact on families and the economy could be transformative.” Jason Walter
