    UAE Corporate Tax Simplified

    Corporate tax has been the topic of discussion since its announcement in January 2022. While there are many questions regarding its implementation, why is there a corporate tax in the UAE, and why is it now? Should all organisations start gearing up today for a smooth transition tomorrow? What are the exemptions, incentives, and implications for corporates, free zones, and SMES? How can an organisation reduce its tax liability with incentives?   Listen to our guest speaker, Aunali Jaffer Merchant, as he simplifies corporate tax. Aunali Merchant is an expert in core tax with 10 years of experience in the UAE and GCC region. He says corporate tax is often seen negatively, but that is not the case, and he explains why in this podcast of Dollar Dirhams and our two financial cents.

    The Future of Work

    Many organisations are still exploring the dynamics of hybrid work from home or work onsite, with most companies favouring the hybrid working model. With this in mind, how are companies coping to keep their employee happiness index high? What are the employees looking for in their job? What corporate culture are employees seeking to be a part of, and why is it so important? What are the more efficient ways to work around budgetary brackets to keep employees happy? Does better medical insurance make a big difference to employees seeing new roles?    Making things more “customer-friendly” and efficient was a key factor that led Ms. Sara Maria Boueri to challenge the status quo, making her a pioneer in the field. Listen to what our guest speaker says about her journey and how she transformed her workplace from the 5th most disengaged organisation to being certified as a “Great Place to Work” in 6 months.

    The Real Cost of Being an Influencer

    Influencers, the stars of the 21st century, inspire us in all walks of life, be it lifestyle, fashion, art, finance or motivation from a six-year-old Diana to Mr Beast on the Global stage, or Khalid Al Ameri to Huda Khatan in the UAE. They have amassed large followings whom they inspire, and brands frequently seek them out to influence their followers positively. The opportunity to work with big brands and make big money has most of us hooked on the idea of cashing in on social media. However, earning a living through social media may not be as simple as it may seem.   Is the relationship between brands and influencers mutually beneficial? Do influencers need to manage and plan their finances differently since they are usually paid through barter deals rather than cash? Is this really a long-term career option?   Listen to what our guest, Saher I. Mansoor, a mommy influencer on Instagram, has to share about her journey, her challenges, and her views on the future of the social media influencer profession.
