World Tax 2012 is now available

The research period is for World Tax 2012 is now closed. Check with the website next year for the opening of the process for the next edition.

The new edition of World Tax features editorial and rankings of firms in 55 jurisdictions around the world and is available to read here.

The research process takes place between April and July each year. Firms can download the research questionnaire for their jurisdiction from this website and complete it to be eligible for inclusion. A returned questionnaire does not mean a firm will definitely be included, but it does mean the writers will be aware of the firm and will thorougly research the information provided.

After the questionnaires have been submitted, the writers will follow up with interviews with tax directors and the senior tax leaders of the firms that have made a submission. This will help them come up with a ranking for each jurisdiction, based on the submissions and interviews. This guide  gives more information about the process.
