Statement of witness on issues faced by mr. stampIain Stamp
Prior to its liquidation, Integrity operated a successful IFA business with a client bank primarily built by referrals from accountants and lawyers. Integrity specialised in holistic financial planning for high net worth individuals and business owners. Mr. Iain Clifford Stamp has been facing business as well as financial setbacks due to matters relating to him, Stargate Capital Management (SCM), UK Innovative TI (UKITI) and Integrity Financial Solutions (Integrity) for almost a decade.
According to this statement of witness, Mr. Stamp asserts that the FSA/FCA (Financial Services Authority/Financial Conduct Authority) launched a campaign of persecution against him both before and after creditors' voluntary liquidation of Integrity Financial Solutions in 2009. The FSA/FCA persecution is deliberate and has prevented him from operating as an approved person within the financial services markets since 2009. However, he has never been deemed unfit and he is unaware of any reason why he should not have been granted approved person status in the five separate applications sent to the FSA/FCA since 2009. He also asserts that the FSA/FCA has deliberately constructed a framework that excludes him from working with other regulated firms through FSA/FCA unnecessary investigations and persecution meant to further harm his unregulated businesses and ultimately his own personal resources.
Mr. Stamp believes that the FSA/FCA has maintained a complicit relationship with Halifax Bank of Scotland that are central to the cause of the deliberate strategy employed by the FSA to force him into putting Integrity into creditors voluntary liquidation. Another example of FSA persecution against him is evident from FSA's investigation into IPM following a letter from its MP in 2010. According to Mr. Stamp's statement, the FCA has acted in bad faith by publishing speculations in an SCM First Supervisory Notice that names UKITI and its director (which is none other than Mr. Stamp) by stating that UKITI may have breached the General Prohibition. SCM and Mr. Stamp strongly deny this.

Winding up is a means by which the dissolution of a company is brought about and its assets are realized and applied in the payment of its debts. After satisfaction of the debts, the remaining balance, if any, is paid back to the members in proportion to the contribution made by them to the capital of the company.”
1. “The liquidation or winding up of a company is the process whereby its life is ended and its property is administered for the benefit of its creditors and members. An Administrator, called a liquidator, is appointed and he takes control of the company, collects its assets, pays its debts and finally distributes any surplus among the members in accordance with their rights.”
Voluntary liquidations under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) are becoming popular for promoters to close down 'unviable' companies. The Quarterly Newsletter (April-June 2019) issued by Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI), the insolvency regulator, shows as many as 452 companies have filed for voluntary liquidation till 30 June 2018. Of that, 56 firms have so far been dissolved, final reports have been submitted in 114 cases and 338 are at different stages of the process.
A company can file for voluntary resolution only if it has no debts or promises to pay the debt in full from the proceeds of assets to be sold under voluntary liquidation process. The application of voluntary liquidation should not also be to defraud any person.

MESSAGE FROM PAUL
In 2010, the AICPA initiated a grassroots effort focused on
harnessing the insights of CPAs, business leaders, regulators,
thought leaders and futurists into the continuing evolution of the
CPA profession. Called CPA Horizons 2025, this visioning
initiative built on the ground-breaking work of the CPA Vision
Project, which took place in the late 1990s, engaged thousands of
CPAs and dozens of other important stakeholders in creating a
blueprint for the profession that led us through 2011.
CPA Horizons 2025 extends that original vision into the future.
The project examined the local and global trends affecting CPAs
in their daily work, enlisted opinions on how these trends will
impact CPAs in the years ahead, and how the profession could
meet the challenges and leverage opportunities now and in the
coming years. As part of this process, we examined the current
and future relevance of our Core Purpose, Values, Competencies
and Services identified as part of the CPA Vision Project.
To explore what the CPA profession will face over the next
15 years, the profession also considered how the technological
tsunami of the past decade has propelled us into new frontiers
and changed how the profession operates. Clearly, demographic
shifts in the CPA profession will bring new opportunities to wider
audiences, evolving our profession to represent the diversity of the
world. Globalization offers opportunities and challenges for the
profession as well as our clients, firms and employers. These are a
sample of the macro-trends that were assessed, discussed and
debated virtually and in face-to-face meetings across the country.
I’m honored to have led this extraordinary collaborative effort of
the CPA profession during my year as Chairman of the AICPA
Board of Directors. No other profession calls upon its members to
engage in such an exercise to prepare for the future. It’s for this
and for so many other reasons, I am extremely proud to be a CPA.
I look forward to collaborating with members of the profession as
we continue to exemplify our CPA Purpose: CPAs … Making
sense of a changing and complex world. I truly believe that the
results detailed in the pages of this report will not only guide the
profession as it considers the opportunities and challenges that lie
ahead in our 15-year horizon, but also for generations to come.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
Artificial intelligence (AI) offers new opportunities to radically reinvent the way we do business. This study explores how CEOs and top decision makers around the world are responding to the transformative potential of AI.
1. MEDIASTATEMENT
SABC BOARD CONDEMNS LEAKING OF MEMORANDUM AUTHORED BY TWO NON-
EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS
Johannesburg-Saturday, 21 September 2019- It has come to the attention of the SABC
Board that a memorandum authored by two non-executive Directors containing untested
allegations has been widely distributed to the media. On 13 September 2019 a
memorandum by Deputy Chairperson Ms. Mamodupi Mohlala-Mulaudzi and Dr Marcia
Socikwa was submitted for Board consideration. It alleged improper conduct by the SABC’s
Group Chief Executive Officer (GCEO), Mr Madoda Mxakwe, and the Chief Financial Officer
(CFO), Ms Yolande van Biljon. The memorandum was not discussed by the Board as the
document was distributed shortly before the meeting was set to commence.
Consequently, the Board decided that the memorandum and matters relating to complaints
against Ms Mohlala-Mulaudzi and Dr Socikwa would be discussed at the next meeting.
The SABC Board believes that the leaking of the memorandum is highly prejudicial to the
SABC GCEO and CFO as it contains allegations that have not been tested. It is the view of
the Board that the leaking of the memorandum before its discussion is intended to bring the
SABC, the Board, and the two Executive Directors into disrepute. Until the allegations
contained in the memorandum are tested and found to be factually correct, they should be
treated as allegations.
Because of the prejudicial nature of the untested allegations, Mr Mxakwe’s preliminary
response is as follows:
“The allegations contained in the memorandum are wholly unfounded, baseless, and
defamatory to me and the CFO in particular, and we are consulting our legal advisors
in this regard. The issues dealt with in the memorandum are operational matters
within the domain of the Executives and are being attended to in various legitimate
and legal forums created to deal with such cases. All the names mentioned are of
2. employees that are either going through disciplinary processes or have been
dismissed, having followed due processes.
Former SABC employees are exercising their rights by challenging the outcomes of
disciplinary processes at the CCMA, Labour Court and the Labour Appeal Court.
These cases are pending, and we urge everyone to respect the processes by
refraining from pre-empting the outcomes, interfering or creating parallel processes.
In pursuing matters of fraud, mismanagement, sexual harassment, irregular salary
increases or irregular appointments, the SABC is doing so to ensure that it instils
proper governance and a culture of accountability. The SABC has had a sustained
systematic collapse of governance and financial systems and the current leadership
team is committed to a process of rehabilitating and renewing the SABC. Disciplinary
hearings are aimed at ensuring appropriate consequence management, where
applicable, and following due processes at all times.
It is clear that there is an intense ‘fight back’ campaign waged against both the Board
and the Executive Management team responsible for consequence management at
the Corporation. This campaign entails the unlawful accessing of official SABC
documents for leaking to certain media houses in a deliberate attempt to undermine
the independence and effective functioning of the SABC and to create the impression
of a divided leadership of the Corporation. We shall not be deterred”.
The Board reaffirms its support for the excellent work performed by the current Executive
Management team under the leadership of Mr. Mxakwe. The Board is pleased to announce
that the following successes were achieved by the current leadership under challenging
circumstances:
· SABC News was rated as having the best and most successful coverage of the May
2019 National and Provincial general elections;
· On 10 September 2019 the Board approved a Turnaround Plan, meeting National
Treasury pre-conditions for a R3.2 billion bailout for the SABC;
· For the financial year 2018/19 the SABC received a qualified audit opinion from the
Auditor-General of South Africa. This saw an improvement from a disclaimer opinion
during the financial year 2017/18;
· Irregular expenditure has been significantly reduced by 65% in the financial year
2018/19;
3. · The organisation recorded a solid 33% reduction in losses in the past fiscal;
· The team continued to drive revenue generation in a very tough economic
environment;
· Significant progress has been achieved in addressing Internal Audit findings;
· Successful acquisition of sports broadcast rights at prices that are commercially
viable for the Corporation; and
· Ensuring sound governance by driving consequence management and putting
internal controls in place.
As the Board we are fully behind the Executives who - acting within the confines of law - will
ensure that the Corporation will rid itself of all its legacy issues.
The Board made a commitment in Parliament that it would not be defocused by the
unfortunate events emanating from its commitment to consequence management. South
Africans have entrusted the SABC Board with the responsibility of rehabilitating and
renewing this national asset and the Board will continue to act in the public interest.
