Managing ATO Tax Debt Disclosures and Business Refinancing Options
More than 37,000 Australian businesses are now subject to Australian Taxation Office (ATO) tax debt reporting, as pressure on businesses with outstanding tax obligations continues to build.
Alares’ latest Credit Risk Insights shows:
ATO tax debt disclosures surged to a new high in August
Winding-up applications rose to their highest monthly level
Insolvencies exceeded the same month in 2025 for the first time since February
The figures highlight why dealing with tax debt before it escalates can be important.
If your business has an outstanding ATO debt and you own property, you may be able to use the equity in that property to refinance the debt.
Depending on your circumstances, this could allow you to:
Pay out the ATO
Move the debt into a finance arrangement that may be easier to manage alongside your other business expenses
