BEPS: The impact survey

BEPS

While the wave of international taxation triggered by the OECD’s 15 BEPS recommendations is designed to bring consistent tax reform globally, it may also be creating a new set of problems.

The escalation of updated regulations and legislation linked to the OECD’s BEPS project has had a profound, day-to-day impact on multinationals, both inside and outside corporate tax departments. Which aspects are proving the most difficult to implement? TP Week is interested in your views.

When TP Week surveyed in-house tax professionals in May 2015, we discovered that more than half of respondents were proactively taking steps to prepare for BEPS implementation. We are curious about what happened to the remaining 46%. Have they caught up, or even taken measures beyond those required by law?

TP Week, in association with Thomson Reuters, has created a survey to better understand the impact of BEPS. We want to hear from you and your colleagues about how these changes are affecting your company. Which particular aspects of the BEPS legislation are the most difficult to manage, and which tax authorities are causing you the most concern in a post-BEPS world?
