We're hurtling at a pace into March, with only two days left till financial year-end for many companies. And, according to Andrew Hannington, that also only leaves two days for companies with a public interest score of less than 350 to
amend their MOIs and opt out of the annual audit.
Last week saw the
CPI rise and, who could forget, Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan's Budget speech. While he delivered
bad news for anyone who likes to indulge their vices, it did bring
welcome tax relief for housing. Gautengers who will be subject to e-tolling when the system goes live also
caught a break, but
SAVRALA is not entirely convinced. Ipsos garnered
South African's views pre-Budget, with
KPMG and
Frost & Sullivan commenting on the results of the speech.
And onward, March...!
