This edition is headlined by a conversation between world-renowned Australian athlete and multi-time Olympic champion Jessica Fox and InfoTrack’s Chief Operating Officer, Lee Bailie, filmed for the Grant Thornton Remarkable Journeys series. As Australia’s Tranche 2 reforms bring 80,000 businesses under new anti-money laundering obligations for the first time, Lee discusses how InfoTrack and Grant Thornton responded by building a world-first, complimentary digital compliance platform, and why securing the right partners and support mattered as much as the technology itself.

The conversation sets the tone for much of what follows. The profession is evolving on several fronts at once, and staying ahead means keeping sight of all of them. This edition looks at four areas where practitioners are navigating change: compliance obligations extending to a broader range of professions, trust in emerging AI tools, investment in justice infrastructure, and shifting property buyer behaviour. Understanding what’s moving, and why, is the first step. Having the right systems and support in place is what makes it manageable.
