  • The Real Beginning of the Various Christian Research Organisations
    § 16.2 Christian Research Associations Page 1 he real beginning of the various Christian research organisations which flourished across the Western world at the end T of the 20th century and early 21st century was in the 1960s, a little behind the secular market research world which had its tentative start in the 1930s, but only really got under way in the 1950s after the War ended. Christian research organisations started through a manager in an aeronautical engineering company in Los Angeles in the late 1940s, who began to feel the Lord calling him into full-time service in the early 1960s. Accordingly Edward Dayton, always abbreviated to Ed, attended Fuller Theological Seminary and then began to ask questions such as, “Who is applying management theory and practice to Christian organisations?” Given the opportunity by his friend Ted Engstrom, the long-serving Vice President of World Vision (WV), to take a room in his Los Angeles office, Ed did so, and over the course of the next year (1967) began an organisation called Missions Advanced Research and Communications Centre (abbreviated to MARC, with one C, not two, at the end). Over the next few years, under Ed’s influence, MARC expanded. He led it to develop in three broad areas: !He began to research the Christian populations of many countries, initially those in which World Vision was working, updating and extending the work previously done by Sir Kenneth Grubb and others published in the World Christian Handbook in 1957, 1962 and 1968; !He began suggesting that mission agencies move away from the old “comity” arrangement whereby one particular mission would be primarily responsible for evangelism and Christian community work in a given area or country, to the concept of working with particular groups of people; !He began helping Christian organisations with management theory and ran courses on subjects like Time Management.

  • Clarity on Swiss Taxes 2019
    Clarity on Swiss Taxes Playing to natural strengths 4 16 Corporate taxation Individual taxation Clarity on Swiss Taxes EDITORIAL Welcome Switzerland remains competitive on the global tax stage according to KPMG’s “Swiss Tax Report 2019”. This annual study analyzes corporate and individual tax rates in Switzerland and internationally, analyzing data to draw comparisons between locations. After a long and drawn-out reform process, the Swiss Federal Act on Tax Reform and AHV Financing (TRAF) is reaching the final stages of maturity. Some cantons have already responded by adjusting their corporate tax rates, and others are sure to follow in 2019 and 2020. These steps towards lower tax rates confirm that the Swiss cantons are committed to competitive taxation. This will be welcomed by companies as they seek stability amid the turbulence of global protectionist trends, like tariffs, Brexit and digital service tax. It’s not just in Switzerland that tax laws are being revised. The national reforms of recent years are part of a global shift towards international harmonization but also increased legislation. For tax departments, these regulatory developments mean increased pressure. Their challenge is to safeguard compliance, while also managing the risk of double or over-taxation. In our fast-paced world, data-driven technology and digital enablers will play an increasingly important role in achieving these aims. Peter Uebelhart Head of Tax & Legal, KPMG Switzerland Going forward, it’s important that Switzerland continues to play to its natural strengths to remain an attractive business location and global trading partner. That means creating certainty by finalizing the corporate tax reform, building further on its network of FTAs, delivering its “open for business” message and pressing ahead with the Digital Switzerland strategy.
