A wave of tributes flooded in for former international tax and trade expert Ben Arrindell who passed away on Wednesday.Arrindell, who served as an adviser to the Barbados Government for more than three decades on the double taxation treaty strategy, the development of new legislation, and the impact of international tax developments on the international business sector, has been hailed by Prime Minister Mia Mottley as a “faithful and competent advisor to the country in a variety of roles”.“That’s because Ben was as unassuming as he was knowledgeable and competent. He never sought the limelight, yet was never stingy in the sharing of his experience as a guide to the Government and people of Barbados. Indeed, the tremendous success we have been able to boast about as an international business domicile of the highest repute was not without the considerable input and guidance of Ben Arrindell,” she said.
