Tax Risk, Strategy & Compliance

Practical solutions to mitigate tax risk

Introduction

Effective tax planning has become essential in the current climate of increasing regulation and merger activity. HMRC is now scrutinising companies’ affairs more closely than ever before. Public scrutiny of corporate tax avoidance and global tax authorities seeking to increase their revenues does not make tax planning easy.

Formulating the right tax risk strategy will ensure that tax planning is effective and compliance obligations are met.

This crucial conference will focus on current challenges that companies face including:

  • Mitigating tax risk and achieving an effective tax rate
  • Ensuring your company is not subject to reputational risk
  • Getting to grips with the SAO rules
  • Managing international tax risk through effective transfer pricing
  • Dealing with resolutions and coming to a conclusion with difficult tax issues
  • Understanding how a UK GAAR will impact the ‘in-house’ tax team, how should companies incorporate GAAR into their tax and compliance strategy?
