Tax Technology and Transformation
The world of Financial Services (FS) Tax is undergoing a fundamental and long-term evolution as tax authorities globally seek to digitise existing tax regimes. In parallel, they are introducing new, wide ranging, complex and data-intensive tax regulations to: increase tax transparency, drive more efficient compliance & insight & increase tax revenues to fund governmental initiatives.
