ARSP Director General Discusses Collaboration with IGF to Strengthen Tax Base for 2025 Budget
On Tuesday, November 5, 2024, Miguel Kashal Katemb, Director General of the Regulatory Authority for Subcontracting in the Private Sector (ARSP), met with Jules Alingete Key, Inspector General and Head of Service of the General Inspectorate of Finance (IGF).
The purpose of their meeting was to discuss how ARSP can contribute to enhancing the tax base of the Congolese State in preparation for the 2025 budget year.
Katemb emphasized the importance of collaboration between ARSP and the IGF to streamline the subcontracting value chain. “The goal is to work in alignment with the vision of the President of the Republic, which aims to promote the development of the middle class and, ultimately, the country’s economy,” he stated.
He further highlighted that subcontracting companies, which have benefited from state support to access previously uncontrolled markets, must now contribute to the national economy.
“These subcontractors need to become active contributors to the country’s tax base, enabling the State to effectively implement its policies,” Katemb added.
Katemb expressed appreciation for the IGF’s support in overseeing public establishments, noting that this collaboration is crucial for the financial authorities and the Congolese Government to achieve their goals.
This working session underscores the commitment to ensuring that the 2025 budget, with its significant allocations, is supported by effective revenue mobilization efforts.
This meeting represents a key step in fostering a productive partnership between ARSP and the IGF to strengthen the Congolese economy.
