Michael has substantial tax advisory experience and has specialized in South African

on a broad spectrum of transfer-pricing issues, from documentation and planning to
dispute resolution, taking into account the unique circumstances of various African
jurisdictions.
Michael is a lecturer at the Universities of Johannesburg, Pretoria and Witwatersrand
where he has been instrumental in developing international tax-specific courses. He is a

Professor Lynette Olivier of the University of Pretoria.
