Dear Integra
International
member firms,
your clients and
other interested
parties.
As of 1
March, 2015 I am
the new Editor
for the
Global Update.
A tremendous
debt of
gratitude and
thanks to former
Editor and
Global Board
Chairman, Franz
Schweiger for
his many years
of service in
providing you
the news you
need to be
successful.
Integra
International is
a worldwide
association of
independent
accounting,
audit, tax and
consulting
firms. Our
strength, and
your benefit, is
knowing that no
matter where in
the world
business takes
you, there is an
Integra firm
ready and able
to provide you
with excellent
service. This is
evident by the
varied authors
and topics that
follow.
In This
Issue
Learn
about the tax
advantages and
substance
requirements of
Cooperative
Associations
(Coop) in the
Netherlands from
Soumaya Ben
Taleb,
Accountant with
Londen & Van
Holland in
Amsterdam.
Damien
Knoblanche,
Partner with The
Peak Partnership
in Brisbane
shares his
thought and
observation on
why the Brisbane
G20 Summit may
well be
remembered as
the start of
global economic
reform as we
know it today.
Everyone’s
favorite IFRS
concept –
Deferred Taxes
– and its
treatment in
countries that
have adopted
IFRS is
presented by
Abiola Adebakin,
Manager with TAC
Professional
Services in
Lagos who tells
us how deferred
taxes is treated
in Nigeria.
It seems
that every
country has
lengthy rules
and regulations
for property
ownership by
“foreigners”.
This is no
different and
just as complex
in the UK as
anywhere else.
Ross Welland,
CA, CTA a
partner with
Wilder Coe in
London provides
us with some of
the guidelines
in his article.
The next
issue of Global
Update will be
published July
2015. In the
meantime Integra
will hold
several
executive and
member meetings
which surely
will produce
more content and
information for
us to share with
you. Don’t miss
our 2015 events
and conferences
in
Houston,
Brussels,
Dublin
and
Santiago de
Chile
where you’ll
meet fellow
Integra members
and continue
making Integra
work for you. I
look forward to
seeing you at
one of the
events.
Best
regards,
Maria Nazario,
CAE
Chief
Executive
Officer,
