ITR World Tax research

ITR World Tax provides independent research and coverage of the world’s leading tax and TP firms and practitioners.

Produced in association with ITR, the research generates rankings that strive to accurately benchmark tax firms and practitioners against their peers in their markets. ITR World Tax also profiles the most effective tax and TP practitioners in the world, covering over 60 jurisdictions across every continent.

Research guidelines

The ITR World Tax research is committed to growing and developing its research, and this year will be accepting submissions from the broadest range of jurisdictions ever, across a wider breadth of practice areas than has previously been covered.

In this way, the research will produce detailed country-by-country ranking tables which reflect the nature of each market. The rankings are based on written evidence of tax matters undertaken during the review period, interviews with and polling of clients, and peer review.

Look out for our research webinars, which you can access here. In these webinars, we will talk about the form and how to maximise your participation in the research. We will also hold a Q&A session.

If you have any further questions about the ITR World Tax rankings process, please contact ITR's head of research John Harrison.
