The 2017 Symposium, an initiative of CSAT, will
focus on Africa and the post-BEPS landscape. As
always, the Symposium will present a sharp and
insightful perspective on current issues in African
taxation. Set against the backdrop of the prevailing
international tax climate, we offer a rich programme
tailored to the needs of all tax professionals with an
interest in Africa. We will pay particular attention to
the key areas of tax treaties, transfer pricing and the
taxation of natural resources. We have an impressive
line-up of world-renowned speakers, ranging from
IBFD in-house experts to speakers from practice,
industry and academia. All sessions will focus on
highly practical content and will be rounded out by
perspectives from all over the world.
