NCB to host tax seminar for businesses navigating statutory payments

KINGSTON, Jamaica — In a strategic move to bolster financial resilience among local enterprises, National Commercial Bank Jamaica Limited (NCB) is set to conduct a specialized online seminar focused on navigating statutory tax obligations without compromising operational liquidity. Scheduled for Thursday, March 12, 2026, between 6:00 pm and 8:00 pm, the virtual event ‘NCB Business Tax Seminar: Master Tax Season and Get Rewarded’ will be broadcast live on the bank’s official YouTube platform.

The seminar will assemble a multidisciplinary panel of taxation authorities, financial strategists, and payment solutions experts to dissect regulatory compliance and unveil pragmatic approaches for managing fiscal responsibilities during peak payment periods. Danielle Cameron Duncan, NCB’s Acting Senior Vice-President for Payments and Enterprise Operations, emphasized that the initiative directly responds to the liquidity constraints frequently encountered by businesses during tax cycles.

‘Unstructured management of tax liabilities can exert substantial pressure on a company’s cash flow,’ Cameron Duncan noted. ‘Our objective is to empower small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with the knowledge to tackle this challenge methodically.’

The discourse will extend to the intelligent application of credit facilities and digital payment instruments, demonstrating how these resources can provide operational flexibility while meeting government mandates. ‘When deployed judiciously, financial tools can offer crucial breathing space, enabling businesses to sustain smooth operations amid statutory demands,’ she added. ‘We aim to equip entrepreneurs with techniques that safeguard liquidity and enhance fiscal discipline.’

Featured contributors include representatives from Tax Administration Jamaica, global payment giant Mastercard, and NCB’s internal experts. Entrepreneurs, independent contractors, and SME proprietors can secure virtual participation by registering at www.tinyurl.com/NCBTaxesSeminar2026.
