As a proud partner of the Australian Government’s Financial Capability Strategy, AFSA has been working on improving our information to help build financial capability in the community.

We have previously launched resources to help people in financial difficulty make informed decisions. These resources focused on supporting people to understand their options before they apply for bankruptcy, including:

• New website pages: budgeting, Dealing with debt and where to find help
• Case studies
• Insolvency eligibility tool
• Income contributions calculator
• Consequences of bankruptcy tool

We’re now thinking about ways to support people after they have become bankrupt, so they can take full advantage of the fresh start that bankruptcy provides and avoid becoming bankrupt again.
