It also includes an update about a transfer pricing case before the Kenyan Tax Appeal Tribunal. Furthermore, registration is now open for the 2025 KPMG Africa Tax Summit on 2-3 September in Johannesburg, South Africa. The summit is designed for executives leading tax and finance functions with oversight for African operations. This will be a distinguished gathering, bringing together tax leaders from across Africa and beyond. In the main plenary sessions, notable guest speakers and KPMG subject matter experts will speak on the big picture themes of geopolitics and tax policymaking, technology and artificial intelligence; as well as the importance of collaboration as a driver for unlocking collective strength.
