Uncertainty in interest rates is not just a market issue, it is a personal financial decision point for every borrower. With inflation still above target and global pressures influencing the outlook, the path forward for interest rates remains unclear.

Jack Will, Finance Manager at The Bongiorno Group, is joined by Senior Finance Consultant Mark Bremner and Director Nick Fennessy to unpack the latest shifts shaping lending decisions. They explore why forecasts have changed, what rising rates mean for borrowers, and how global and local factors are interacting.

They focus on practical decision-making, including the pros and constraints of fixed and variable loans, the role of hybrid strategies, and why personal circumstances should ultimately guide the right approach.

Efforts to prevent, treat and ultimately cure cancer rely not only on clinical excellence, but also on sustained investment in research. Tour de Cure, an Australian charity dedicated to funding cancer research, prevention and support programs, has raised more than $150 million and helped deliver hundreds of research breakthroughs across the country.

Sports broadcaster and former Sunrise team member Mark Beretta reflects on his long association with the charity and the impact it has had on patients, families and researchers. A board member for more than a decade, Beretta shares the story behind Tour de Cure’s growth from a small cycling initiative into one of Australia’s most significant contributors to cancer research funding.

Paul Fox, Director of the Bongiorno Group, joins Mark as they explore the human, financial and societal impact of cancer, the importance of prevention and research, and how individuals and organisations can contribute to the mission.
