University of Pretoria Open Day 2014

The Law Faculty of the University of Pretoria held its annual Open Day for law students on the 22nd of February 2014.

The Law Career Day is a time that both students as well as employers look forward to. Law firms get an opportunity to market themselves to students who are seeking to be Candidate Attorneys in 2015 and 2016. The students on the other hand get an opportunity to receive more information on the different firms around the country; as well as to interact with different practicing Attorneys and Candidate Attorneys, in order to make it easier for them to make an informed choice as to which firm to choose that will best suite their aspirations and overall abilities.

Navigating financial emigration

Navigating financial emigration

In recent years, South Africa has seen a notable rise in financial emigration. This shift comes with significant tax implications, as individuals who cease to be tax residents must navigate complex regulations and financial considerations. Understanding these implications is crucial for anyone considering this move. Financial emigration refers to the formal process by which South African taxpayers alter their tax residency status, change their status with the South African Reserve Bank (SARB) for exchange control purposes and relocate their financial assets to other countries. This often involves transferring wealth, investments, and retirement funds offshore. The South African Revenue Services now mainly oversees this process, allowing individuals to terminate their tax residency in South Africa while effectively transferring their finances overseas.
