The Great Resignation: Technology can bridge the tax talent gap

In an environment where the talent gap is growing and smaller teams are managing multiple jurisdictions, our panel of experts discuss how content-enabled technology can help enterprises move away from key people dependencies, as well as help existing teams manage their workloads more efficiently.

How to manage growing tax complexity

Tax teams in India and Southeast Asia continue to manage ever-changing regulations, heightened scrutiny from tax auditors, and increasing compliance and reporting requirements - regionally and internationally. Our panel of experts discuss how tax leaders can rethink their technology systems, data strategies and compliance processes to stay ahead of emerging and increasingly prevalent digital tax reporting requirements.

How to manage VAT and GST efficiently within the ERP environment

Technology plays a critical role in the modern tax department, where it helps to reduce indirect tax errors, overpayments and audit risk.

 

Our panel of experts discuss the approaches tax departments are taking to manage various tax determination and compliance processes.
