With BEPS pillar two presenting data-related challenges for enterprise tax teams, ITR held a webinar in collaboration with insightsoftware and KPMG to explain the increasing need to transform tax processes.

Tax has developed a reputation over the years for being a serious and rather joyless profession, partly due to decades of tax professionals being portrayed as men in suits with piles of paperwork in the mainstream movies and TV shows of the late nineties and early noughties, writes Niall Kiernan, senior director of product management for ecommerce and marketplaces at Vertex. Today, however, the adoption of new, emerging technologies, paired with significant changes to traditional workplaces and cultures, has given rise to a new ‘face’ for the industry. Tax is heading in a new direction, and it is being led there by ‘the tax technologist’.

Join ITR and insightsoftware at 1.30pm BST on July 18 2023 as they provide an update on BEPS 2.0 and explain why the transformation of tax processes is necessary to address the requirements of pillar two.

Rumi Das and Guy Seeger of Deloitte highlight the broadening set of skills required of the modern tax advisor, and how tax departments can foster such attributes.

Anil Talreja of Deloitte provides an overview of India’s dynamic business and tax landscape as the country’s economic initiatives continue to drive strong growth in foreign direct investment.

Sunny Leung and Conrad Turley of KPMG China offer an overview of the varied implications of the much-anticipated BEPS 2.0 rollout across Asia Pacific.
