Thought Leadership
The only certain thing about South Africa’s taxes is constant change, and that is by way the Minister of Finance’s annual Budget Speech, legislative amendments, regulations, tax cases, interpretation notes and rulings. It is important for taxpayers to appraise the latest developments and to consider areas that may be applicable to their circumstances, but it is not easy for normal taxpayers to keep up to date with this bombardment of constant changes. For this reason Johan keeps himself up to date with the latest development by preparing a comprehensive tax update every quarter which takes these developments into account.
From time to time Johan also writes articles, contributes to other publications on an ad hoc basis and also presents on topics dealing with tax issues from time to time.
Therefore Johan’s understanding of South Africa’s ever-changing and complex tax environment, makes him essential in your business, to help you through tax problems, reduce taxation and minimise tax risks.
