Our Speakers’ Profiles

 

Today, businesses face more challenges in managing tax risk.

New reporting and transparency requirements continue to be introduced. Tax authorities increase scrutiny, enforce more aggressively and strengthen tax regulations. Employing digital technologies, corporate data is easily collected, analysed and exchanged between authorities. The news media has not been shy of reporting on cases, exposing companies to reputational risk. A key risk area is Transfer Pricing, for example.
 
How should you respond to meet the demands of an ever changing tax landscape? Are your current internal digital capabilities sufficient for this new world of digital tax administration?
 
As tax authorities enhance their digital capabilities in this global digital economy, digital technology itself changes the business landscape. Boundaries of established industry segments, business strategies and models are blurred. Your biggest competitive threat may not be from an existing competitor next door but a “sharing economy” start-up from a distant country. Disruptive technology permits financial innovation and new capital sourcing methods. It is said no sector will be immuned from Big Data and machine learning. 

How will these impact you? How ready are you for all these?

Come discover and participate in the Q&A session “Budget 2018 : Impact on Taxpayers” and the forum “Business Growth Possibilities” with us on 16 November 2017.

 

 

The seminar will be an exceptional platform for professional development and networking.

It permits 8 CPD hours and is HRDF claimable under the Skim Bantuan Latihan (subject to approval of Pembangunan Sumber Manusia Bhd).
