Foreword

In this edition we discuss the highlights of the PNG Mid-Year Economic and Fiscal Outlook Report for the current year.  On the eve of preparing for year-end audits in 3 months’ time for most entities, we also provide some guidance on audit-readiness to remove the sting from this process.  As always, we focus on cybersecurity in this market, and briefly discuss the benefits of a well-structured Cyber Incident Response Plan (CIRP).  Finally we touch on the Income Tax rewrite status and the IRC budget status.

KPMG in PNG has dedicated in-house locally-based specialists in all of the following areas: cybersecurity and technology advisory, internal audit/risk, visa migration, corporate finance, management consulting, fraud investigation as well as tax, audit readiness, financial statement preparation, payroll services and assurance. As such we are well placed to provide a truly multi-disciplined approach to business advisory.
