„WONDERFUL 2012 IPG SPRING

CONFERENCE BUDAPEST”

CONTRIBUTION FROM

STEVE WOOD, BARNES

ROFFE LLP:

A wonderful conference in

Budapest was organised by

our friends in that city (Eva

from Kalaszi Law Firm and

Akos and his colleagues from

Hajdu & Menyhei Attorneys

at Law). The event was made

all the more enjoyable by the

glorious Spring weather that

we enjoyed.

Most people arrived on Thurs-

day 3 May. A buffet-style

dinner had been organised at

the Marriott Hotel, which

provided an ideal opportunity

for old friendships to be re-

newed and for new friends to

be made. The golfers bored

anyone who would listen with

tales of great prowess at the

golf competition earlier that

day, which competition had

been well attended by both

male and female golfers. We

learned that Robert Christen-

sen from Jersey had been the

winner (not for the first time).

Stories were swapped long

into the night, at the bar.

The conference proper started

Friday morning at 9.15am.

After the usual introductory

speeches by Friedhelm and

the host firms, we were given

some snappy and interesting

presentations on business

practices in Hungary by Akos

and various of his colleagues.

After coffee, further short

presentations were given by

commercial organisations

who had built successful busi-

nesses in Hungary. After a

well earned lunch, various

prospective new members

made presentations about their

firms.

WONDERFUL 2012 IPG SPRING

CONFERENCE BUDAPEST

Continued from page 1:

It was notable that the standard

of these firms seemed general-

ly to be very high, which au-

gurs well for the future of the

IPG network. Thereafter, three

members made brief presenta-

tions about opportunities,

threats and challenges in their

jurisdictions. First up was

Michael Robinson of the New

Zealand law firm Turner Hop-

kins, who explained the oppor-

tunities presented by New Zea-

land’s well developed code of

Trust Law. Next, Bill Finnecy

from the USA accounting prac-

tice Malin Berquist gave dire

warnings about a new infor-

mation gathering initiative

started by the IRS, which could

have far reaching implications

for individuals and corpora-

tions who have dealings with

the IRS.

Finally, Friedhelm Gruber of

Senat gave an interesting case

study, which explained the

opportunities presented by the

recently enacted Dubai/Austria

double tax treaty.

The afternoon was rounded-off

by a speed networking session

supervised by Wim Lukaart

and Jens Langendorff. Mem-

bers who did not know each

other especially well paired up

and had roughly seven minutes

to swap details and information

about their respective firms.

This was undertaken enthusias-

tically and the session over-ran

quite considerably.

Members then met spouses on

the terrace for a much needed

drink. The spouses’ tour had

been well attended and a good

time had been had by all, sight-

seeing, lunching and shopping.

At 7.15pm, we walked to a

nearby acclaimed venue for the

Gala Dinner, which involved

good food, fine wine and lively

music by a local jazz band.

Thereafter, the young and

reckless went out clubbing,

whilst the older and wiser dele-

gates had a final drink at the

bar before retiring to bed for

much needed rest.

Saturday morning is reserved

for the members’ meeting.

The Management Committee

gave various information up-

dates, but the crucial business

related to the upcoming confer-

ences and the election of new

members. In the former re-

gard, Katarzyna Mailinowska

from Warsaw gave an informa-

tive and entertaining insight

into what her firm has planned

for the October 2012 confer-

ence in that city. We also re-

ceived brief details of plans for

conferences through to Octo-

ber 2015 – it’s good to plan

ahead! As regards new mem-

bers, a certain amount of de-

bate ensued, and whilst most

applicant firms were admitted

enthusiastically, one firm’s

application required further

consideration and, for the first

time, the IPG Advisory Com-

mittee was invoked to provide

guidance on certain matters.

An afternoon sightseeing and

at leisure was followed by a

Dinner Dance on the river boat

Europa, which was the perfect

setting to admire the sights of

the city and to say goodbye to

friends.

All in all, a wonderfully enjoy-

able conference. Roll on War-

saw!

TENNIS TOURNAMENT

Contribution from Tomáš

Bělina of Law Firm Belina &

Partners:

Originally, eight tennis players

were supposed to play divided

into two groups. Unfortunate-

ly, after non-participation of

three tennis players due to in-

juries or similar reasons, only

five players participated. Not-

withstanding the lower number

of players than expected, we

had a really great tennis tour-

nament. We played in Park

Teniszklub, which is one of the

oldest tennis clubs in Budapest

with more than 100 years his-

tory called Park Teniszklub.

The tennis club was really

lovely and just ten minutes

drive from the hotel. Great

choice of the host.

Due to the lower number of

players we played in one

group, therefore, everybody

had the chance to fight against

all remaining four players.

Every tennis player played

four games which meant play-

ing almost for four hours with-

out a break. The weather was

sunny and so hot, therefore, the

tennis tournament was really

back-breaking.

We had planned to play a final

between two players with the

most wins, however, due to the

long and hard battles in the

group, we did not manage to

play the final. After playing in

the group we had more players

with the same number of wins.

Therefore, without playing the

final, we did not have the real

winner of the tennis tourna-

ment. However, I believe that

every participant, who sur-

vived after four tennis battles

in the extremely hot weather,

was the winner of the tennis

tournament in Budapest. After

the tennis tournament we had a

very deserved cold and local

beer which tasted so good after

the back-breaking four tennis

battles.

I believe more tennis players

than in Budapest will play the

IPG Tennis Tournament in

Warsaw. I would like to invite

all to play the tennis tourna-

ment in Warsaw and to have

great fun as we had in Buda-

pest. Thank you to our host,

Akos and Adam, for organiz-

ing a nice tennis tournament in

a very lovely and old club in

the center of Budapest.

SPOUSE PROGRAM

Contribution from Angelika

Jäger of RWB Revisions und

Wirtschaftsberatungs

GmbH:

It couldn’t have been a better

day for a guided city tour. The

sky was clear of clouds and

lots of sunshine. Quite a crowd

of spouses gathered in the lob-

by of the Marriott Hotel. As

always, it was a pleasure to

meet well-known faces while

also adding some new ones.

At 10:00 o’ clock we started

our very special guided city

tour with an additional surprise

as indicated on the program. A

huge, blue bus with somewhat

“miniature aircraft stairs” wait-

ed in front of the hotel. There

was a little bit of astonishment

but talking and chatting with

each other everybody climbed

onto the bus (so: thanks to the

female genes, all worked out

for the organizing group). The

tour started, passing by the

imposing Parliament, the very

impressive St. Stephen’s Basil-

ica all the way to Dohány Syn-

agogue. We continued on the

main boulevard “Andrassy

Street”, passing by the magnif-

icent State Opera House all to

Heroe’s Square, the city’s larg-

est square. Unfortunately there

was no time to get off the bus

but the friendly guide informed

us very detailed about the city

and its visitor attractions.

The tour goes on and stops all

of a sudden on the banks of the

Danube. The surprise is lifted:

our bus is a SHIP! And before

everybody even understands

what this means, there is a

short briefing which reveals

the location of 9 emergency

exits and the life vests (not

needed after all), followed by a

change of drivers - bus driver

being swapped for a ship’s

captain - and off we go over a

70 m long ramp into the Dan-

ube. SPLASH!As everybody

can imagine, this exciting and

unique experience was being

naturally perceived in com-

plete silence and without any

emotions (with the exception

of “our” only male spouse, of

course) .

SPOUSE PROGRAM

Continued from page 3:

This started the second part of

our guided tour – on water.

Speeding at 30Km/h passing

by Margaret Island on the route

to the Parliament (even more

impressive seen from the wa-

ter), past the Fisherman’s Bas-

tion, the Royal Palace, drive

under the Chain bridge and

back (4km/h). We have been

an attraction for all passers-by

the banks (“like monkeys in

the zoo” quote Anne) and pic-

tures of us were taken several

times.

I highly recommend to google

the “riverrride.com”. There are

some awesome videos, alt-

hough none of us are shown on

them. - What an experience – .

Back on land we were talking

about our impressions in the

cozy “Blind-Rook-Restaurant.”

Later in the afternoon we took

the historical underground Line

No. 1, explored some luxury

shops and porcelain shops and

finally returned to our hotel.

The next morning - the weather

again being fabulous - we

walked altogether to the Great

City Market Hall. This beauti-

ful building, its exterior being

decorated with colorful glazed

clay, houses 180 different

stores and shops on 3 stories.

We explored the Hall in small-

er groups, buying souvenirs,

leather goods, furs, culinary

treats and: paprika!!

We were heading back to the

hotel for lunch and to our

wives and husbands in order to

mutually enjoy the afternoon

entertainment.

Once again I have enjoyed a

great weekend with wonderful

people in a beautiful city and a

well-organized spouse program

as well as everything else. The

River ride experience will re-

main unforgotten……

Thank you to the organization

group.

GOLF TOURNAMENT

Contribution from Robert

Christinsen of Volaw Trust

& Corporate Services Ltd.:

In keeping with a tradition that

has been maintained for many

years, the Budapest conference

was preceded by a golf tourna-

ment for conference delegates,

held on the Thursday morning.

The event was held at The Old

Lake Golf & Country Club,

over an hour's drive west from

Budapest, so in order to ensure

that the participants in the tour-

nament were able to return to

the hotel by mid-afternoon, the

coach taking us all there left

the hotel at 07.15. For some of

us who the previous evening

had enjoyed to the full the hos-

pitality that Budapest has to

offer, that early departure was

somewhat unwelcome; How-

ever, there was time on the

coach to catch-up on lost sleep.

Seventeen delegates took part

in the tournament: fourteen

men and three ladies. This was

the largest turnout for an IPG

golf tournament, reflecting the

growing popularity of the

event. It must be said that on

the way to the club, the ladies

on the whole seemed to be

more lively than some of the

men!

GOLF TOURNAMENT

Continued from page 4: With

its name derived from the near-

by Old Lake, the course pre-

sents golfers with the challenge

of numerous water hazards,

particularly in the first nine

holes. These water hazards

certainly helped to lighten the

load for some of the players in

the IPG tournament, who lost a

good number of balls in some

of them. Whilst not an espe-

cially long course, Old Lake

demands precision on all of its

holes; players need to avoid

not just the water but also the

trees and areas of rough grass

that line many of the fairways.

It presents a fair challenge,

however: it rewards players

who seek to manage their way

around the course, carefully

choosing which clubs to play

and playing within their game.

The greens were good, running

true if a little slow.

The tournament players were

divided into five groups, two

with four players and three

with three players, and all teed

off at the same time - a shotgun

start - from different holes.

This was intended to ensure

that all the players ended at

much the same time, though in

practice, because of different

numbers in the groups and with

some players more experienced

than others, this did not quite

go to plan. The format was a

Stableford competition, with

full allowance for handicap but

with a maximum handicap

allowance of 28 for men and

36 for ladies. This format is

believed to be the fairest, par-

ticularly for less experienced

players, especially when play-

ing on an unfamiliar course.

The weather was hot, about

28* C, and very humid, with

spots of rain late morning.

This sapped the strength of

some of the players and it must

be said that by the time all had

finished, around 2.00 PM, eve-

ryone was ready for a drink

and food.

The tournament was won by

your writer, Robert Christen-

sen, with 35 Stableford points;

joint runners-up, both with 30

Stableford points, were Jeffrey

Deane and Graham Wallace.

Mention should also be made

of Jakob Hotzl, who had the

lowest gross score but, adjust-

ed for his handicap of 6, had

28 Stableford points. Beatrix

Doppler, also from Hotzl &

Partner, had the best score of

the ladies, with 29 Stableford

points.

HUNGARY, A WORLD OF POTENTIALS

Contribution from Krisztina

Gyepes of Hajdu & Menyhei

Attorneys at Law

What else than our words can

lead you to Hungary? Might be

the memories looking on the

pictures you took during the

IPG conference in Budapest

with your auto exposure still

camera invented by József

Mihály in 1938? Might be a

telephone call from Hajdu &

Menyhei Attorneys at Law

rendered possible by Tivadar

Puskás in 1878? Might be the

time you were travelling

through this industrial transit

hub between Western and

Eastern Europe with AC loco-

motive invented by Kálmán

Kandó in 1902 or driving your

VW Beetle designed by Béla

Berényi and using an automat-

ic gearbox invented by László

Bíró?

Hungary is all over your life:

working with Microsoft Excel

created by Károly Simonyi in

1974 late night in the office,

while you have to change your

soft contact lenses invented by

István Győrffy in 1959 to

glasses; watching color televi-

sion with your children or lis-

tening to an old gramophone

with your husband or wife,

both developed by Károly Pé-

ter Goldmark; mentioning to

your clients Leonar3do, the

virtual reality kit developed by

Dániel Rátai being presented to

you on IPG Conference in Bu-

dapest.

You all have the possibility to

take part in the next invention

by doing business in Hungary,

an open and multicultural envi-

ronment having a highly edu-

cated workforce and keeping

priority to attract foreign inves-

tors by its constantly develop-

ing legal environment, which

had led companies, such as

British Telecom, Exxon Mobil,

Vodafone, Air France, GE,

Alcoa, Morgan Stanley, IBM,

Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Suzuki,

Opel, Huawei Technologies

and many others to locate facil-

ities in Hungary. Incentives

and grants are allocated on

case-by-case basis following

negotiations between the inves-

tor and the Government.

Foreigners may carry out con-

tinuous business activities in

Hungary if they establish a

Hungarian company or register

a branch or representative of-

fice or permanent establish-

ment (PE).

The industrial development

had an effect on company law

resulting in an electronic com-

pany registration process and

swiftly accessible company

data base. It is worth mention-

ing, that Hungarian legislator

intends to initiate electronic

judicial proceedings in the en-

tire civil law as of 1 April

2013. Recognizing the require-

ments of the 21st century's fast

-growing industry, Hungarian

labour law amendments - enter

into force on 1 July 2012 – are

in accordance with demands of

the market by adopting regula-

tion aiming flexibility of em-

ployment.

Due to the fact that Hungary is

a member of the EU, the Hun-

garian taxation system is har-

monized with EU directives

and provides a secure legal

framework for the conduct of

business. Hungary’s corporate

tax rate (10%) is competitive in

the region, and by having sev-

eral bilateral tax treaties on

double taxation avoidance

Hungary does not impose with-

holding tax on dividends, inter-

est or royalties.

Use your computer developed

by János Neumann in 1944 to

plug in the H&M pen drive

given to you during the IPG

Conference if you are interest-

ed in doing business in Hunga-

ry or take your ballpoint pen

invented by László Bíró and

write us, we would be delight-

ed to provide you with further

information about the country

of potentials.

MEMBERSHIP COORDINATOR

Contribution from Jesse

Hartgring, Hoens & Souren

Keereweer Advocaten:

IPG is growing. Which is

good: the more members, the

more possibilities will present

themselves. But with a grow-

ing network it becomes

less and less easy to get to

know every one of the (board)

members. Or to share infor-

mation or suggestions. That is

exactly why a new position

has been created: the IPG

members' council.

The position was introduced in

the last general meeting in the

beautiful city of Budapest.

The main goal of the

new position is to provide for a

different level to communicate

on relevant IPG topics.

The members' council is not a

board member, but he does

have the possibility to put these

topics on the agenda.

It is a position on a different

level than the board, not in-

stead of the board. The board

will be available for members'

suggestions and ideas at all

times.

Thereto the members' council

will play an (pro-)active role

among the IPG members, to

learn about their ideas and sug-

gestions.

Already in Budapest several

members brought forward their

ideas and suggestions. Thanks

for that. I have been asked to

fulfil this position for the next

three years, so until 2015.

Please feel free to reach me on

my mobile (0031618132563)

of via e-mail: hart-

gring@hslaw.nl.

IPG Members' Council 2012-

2015

WEBSITE UPDATE

During the general meeting in

Budapest, the general ideas of

a new website were presented.

The look and feel requires a

change and the new website

should serve the three possible

types of users (potential mem-

bers, potential clients and ex-

isting members) better. We

will start with the most im-

portant features first and after

the launch of that part, the de-

velopment will continue. Also,

a second version of the website

will be developed designed for

mobile phones and tablets etc.

You may appreciate that little

effort is put in the old website

other than to keep the written

content up to date. However, if

you notice that something is

not correct, please feel free to

inform us or the secretariat.

BYE NEW YORK! HALLO FRANKFURT!

Contribution from Jens

Langendorff of Graham,

Smith & Partners

With 33 runners prepared to

run, the idea of the NY-

marathon with IPG was simply

good. However, when it be-

came clear what the exact ex-

penses would be the number of

participants reduced to a group

of 2, namely Norbert Jaeger of

RWB

WIRTSCHAFTSPRÜFUNGS-

GESELLSCHAFT MBH and

myself. Obtaining tickets for

such a small group appeared

not possible. We now have

found a better alternative in the

marathon of Frankfurt, Germa-

ny. This marathon will take

place on 28 October 2012. If

you are interested to join,

please reserve your ticket via

the Frankfurter Marathon web-

site. After that, please inform

us so that you can order your

original IPG running shirt!

Norbert and Angelika Jaeger

can help you with accommoda-

tion if you would like this.

Apparently, running seems

reason to collect money for a

good course so we concluded

why not to raise as much spon-

sorship money as we can as

well. Cancer is a terrible de-

cease that makes victims

amongst everyone's closest

friends and family members

and also ours . Therefore, our

good course will be the fight

against cancer.

So: feel free in joining us in

this marathon and in our fight

against cancer by your dona-

tion. More details to follow.
