tax - KPMG

 Attitudes to tax are changing. Organizations of all sizes are ever more exposed to new trends in tax regulation, not just locally but globally.

KPMG is at the forefront of an evolving tax landscape

As a leading tax network, we believe that we – as individual tax professionals have a duty to engage in the discussion and debate surrounding Tax Transparency and Responsibility. As the tax strategies of multinationals and domestic companies continue to be examined by both tax authorities and the public alike, we work with our clients to develop tax strategies that are fit for purpose in the tax system of tomorrow.  

Working with clients to define the tax department of tomorrow. To keep pace with the reporting changes, multinational corporations will need to evaluate their in-house resources to determine if they will be able to manage additional requirements and responsibilities. They will also need to assess their systems to ensure that they can meet new requirements for multijurisdictional reporting. 

Our tax professionals are also bound by our Principles for a Responsible Tax Practice, which set out additional fundamental ethical principles and behaviours.
