Joey Mathekga, Senior Manager for Corporate Compliance and Disclosure Regulation at the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC), explains what the solvency and liquidity test actually entails, why so many businesses are falling short, and the real consequences from compliance notices to personal liability for directors.
