ITIC hires Pessoa Ramos to make progress in Latin America

The International Tax and Investment Center (ITIC), which works with politicians, officials, taxpayers, practitioners and others to encourage best practices in tax and investment policy, has appointed Beth Pessoa Ramos to manage its Latin American programmes.

Ramos, who runs her own law firm, was formerly oil & gas leader for EY in Brazil between February 2011 and April 2013. From January 1995 to February 2011, she was Brazilian head of tax for Shell, with responsibility for downstream and upstream, including customs regulation with a focus on REPETRO, the special regimen for the importation of equipment of the oil & gas industry.

She will be in charge of ITIC’s office in Rio de Janeiro, which has just opened. The organisation is joining with the Inter-American Center of Tax Administrations (CIAT), the World Bank, and Federal Revenue of Brazil to hold its first Latin America Tax Forum in the city on May 8 and 9 this year.
