CIMA Sri Lanka will be conducting the CIMA Directors’ Tax Forum on 25 January 2018 at the Cinnamon Grand. The forum will focus primarily on the newly introduced Foreign Exchange Act as well as tax on Capital gains.

The tax and foreign exchange regime of Sri Lanka is undergoing significant changes with the introduction of the new Inland Revenue Act and the new Foreign Exchange Act. Directors must be cognisant in identifying opportunities and pitfalls inherent to the transition.

The presentation will be delivered by KPMG Principal – Tax and Regulatory Suresh R.I. Perera.

He holds a Bachelor of Law (LLB) Degree from the Faculty of Law, University of Colombo and is an Attorney-at-Law.
