In November 2015, the National Assembly passed the Taxation Laws Amendment Bill which, among other changes, introduced forced annuitization of benefits accruing to provident fund members on retirement. While the ink on these recent pension reforms is barely dry, we have been informed to expect further and substantial developments in this particular area of law in the next few days and weeks. We also have it on good authority that other reforms in pension law will come to the fore soon.
To reiterate, we will keep you up to date about any and all developments, and endeavour to explain what these developments mean for you and your business.
