This paper looks at the current rules affecting the recoupment of losses for companies, particularly in light of the 2005 changes and their subsequent amendment. Topics covered include:
- brief history of the loss recoupment rules
- structure of loss recoupment rules
- relaxation of rules
- the application of the loss recoupment rules to the SME market
- briefly touch on widely held companies/consolidation
- includes case studies.
