Tax Working Group

Working Group Mandate

The Tax Working Group engages with the ATO, Treasury, and industry to promote fair and practical tax treatment of digital assets. For FY25, its focus is on Self-Managed Superannuation Funds (SMSFs) and guidance supporting compliant crypto asset investment.

Leadership Team

DECA’s Working Groups are led by experienced industry practitioners who bring deep subject matter expertise and a strong understanding of Australia’s regulatory, commercial, and technical landscape.

Working Group leaders guide discussion, set priorities in line with each group’s mandate, and help translate industry insight into practical outcomes. They work closely with the DECA team to ensure member perspectives inform advocacy, policy engagement, education initiatives, and broader ecosystem development.

Leadership roles are focused on stewardship and coordination, supporting constructive collaboration across members, regulators, government, and the wider digital economy.
