Issues around base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS), transfer pricing and the digitalisation of tax are viewed as most likely issues to dominate the tax industry and media landscape for the next two years, according to tax experts from Kreston International.
In a survey of attendees of Kreston International Tax Conference, a significant number of respondents indicated that BEPS and Transfer Pricing (both 19.35%), along with tax digitalisation (17.26%), were the top three issues likely to be at the forefront of industry debate.
Tax avoidance and evasion (15.48%), harmonisation of tax (11.31%) and tax investigations (10.7%) were also highly ranked, highlighting the public and political scrutiny these issues continue to receive around the globe.
Kreston International global tax group chair Mark Taylor said: “These figures bear out our conversations within the Kreston International network: that the BEPS project and transfer pricing continue to dominate the international tax landscape for multi-nationals.
“The fact that tax digitalisation came second in our poll reflects the belief that governments across the globe have this high on their agenda. As ever the tax landscape globally continues to evolve and this is only likely to accelerate in the post-Covid era as individual countries look to rebalance their economies.”
