SEMINAR: How to prepare for a more aggressive SARS collecting an extra R70 billion
Dr Daniel N Erasmus will deliver an update tax seminar to assist preparing you for more aggressive tax audits
Why work harder for R3.70 in sales when you can save R1 in tax — with less effort, risk, and overhead?
- In business, margin is everything. And tax is the hidden drain on profit.
- Join Dr Daniel N Erasmus this September 2025 for a powerful CPD-accredited seminar on strategic tax risk management and preparing for more aggressive tax audits. Every R1 saved in tax is worth 3.7x more to your business rather than having to chase that extra turnover to cover tax expense.
Dr Daniel Erasmus has built a distinguished career representing multinationals in complex tax disputes, defending close to ZAR 60 billion in contested assessments. Remarkably, the average taxpayer represented paid less than 3% of the amount claimed. These successes are driven by Dr Erasmus’ bespoke tax risk management strategies and specialised representation techniques, honed over decades of engagements with SARS and other African revenue authorities.
With SARS targeting an additional ZAR 70 billion in tax collections, multinationals, corporates and high net worth individuals (HNWI) should expect a surge in more aggressive tax audits and intensified scrutiny. Now, more than ever, taxpayers must prepare proactively to meet these tax audits preserving their bottom line.
In this high-impact three-hour, in-person seminar, Dr Erasmus will unveil the core tax risk strategies and tax audit-handling methodologies previously taught to senior executives at institutions such as the Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS). The seminar will close with the launch of his new book “Conducting a Transfer Pricing Trial” which contains much of the material affecting all types of tax audits and potential tax disputes. Copies of the new book will be available at the seminar.
