The Power of Optimism At some point in your career you might have had the feeling of been discouraged or overwhelmed. We can tell you for sure that it’s natural to have moments of doubt or frustration, but cultivating a positive, optimistic mindset can make all the difference for you. To some great assurance, we can say that been optimistic can help you achieve greater success in your career. Optimism is the belief that good things are possible, and setbacks are temporary and solvable. People who are optimistic tend to be more resilient, creative, and effective problem-solvers. By contrast, pessimistic people may become overwhelmed by challenges and give up too easily, leading to missed opportunities and lower job satisfaction. As professionals, having an optimistic mindset can help you achieve your career goals in several ways. It can give you the motivation and resilience to keep pushing forward despite setbacks or rejections. It helps you see opportunities where others see only obstacles. Going forward, in other for you to become optimistic, try practicing gratitude by focusing on what you have rather than what you lack. When you are also facing challenges, focus on solutions rather than problems, by asking yourself "how can I solve this?" rather than "why is this happening to me?" Finally, in today’s fast-paced and often challenging work environment, it's easy to become discouraged or overwhelmed. However, by cultivating a positive, optimistic mindset, you can overcome obstacles and achieve greater success in your careers. Have a great week ahead.

Tax Implications of Revenue from Investment Securities Corporate entities, such as banks and other financial institutions, often generate income from various sources, including securities. What is a Security? A "Security" is a financial instrument representing different types of investments, such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and derivatives. What Does the Sale of Securities Entail? The sale of securities involves individuals, corporate entities or even government selling financial instruments like stocks, bonds, and mutual funds to potential investors. Corporate entities often sell securities as a strategy to raise capital. These funds can be utilized for expanding operations, repaying debt, or financing the company's strategic initiatives. What Taxes Apply to Revenue of This Nature? 1. VAT Implication: Proceeds from the disposal of securities are not subject to VAT in Nigeria. The VAT Act, under Section 46, defines goods as all forms of tangible property, whether movable or immovable, but excludes land, buildings, money, and securities. 2. CIT Implication: The type of security sold determines whether income tax applies. Interest income earned on FGN (Federal Government of Nigeria) bonds is not liable to income tax. However, other securities, such as corporate bonds, state bonds, and other similar instruments, are taxable. The income tax exemption order, which was granted for ten years from 2012 to 2022, has since expired, meaning that only FGN bonds remain exempt from income tax. 3. Capital Gains Tax (CGT) Implication: The Finance Act 2021 introduced Section 30 of the Capital Gains Tax Act, which taxes gains accruing from the disposal of shares above ₦100 million, provided that the proceeds are not reinvested into the same or another Nigerian company within the same financial year. This means that any gain on the disposal of shares exceeding ₦100 million, if not reinvested within the financial year, will be subject to CGT at a rate of 10%.

Learn Without Limits On August 8, 2020, we launched the Finance Business Partners Community to address a significant issue: the gap between academic teachings and real-world applications in finance. We recognized that what is taught within the four walls of academic institutions often does not fully prepare individuals for the practical demands outside those walls. Over the years, we've been dedicated to bridging this gap. We've organized numerous training sessions, maintained daily engagement across our social media platforms, and introduced various programs such as the FBP Accountability Programme. We've also established a physical presence in top tertiary institutions in Nigeria. The big news is that we're taking this a step further. We have launched our website where community members and others can access free practical training through videos and written content, enhancing their knowledge in Finance, Accounting, Tax, Audit, and other related fields. Are you an accountant or finance professional looking to enhance your skills? Or a student wanting to join a professional community? Sign up for our free courses at www.fbpcommunity.org. We offer a variety of free and paid high-quality courses designed specifically for you. Our free courses allow you to study at your own pace, anytime, anywhere. By signing up on our website, you'll have the opportunity to connect with like-minded professionals and start your journey toward professional excellence.
