Today’s tax environment is often strangely disconnected: On the one hand, tax specialists use smart phones, social media and ERP systems both privately and professionally. On the other hand, most tax functions still rely heavily on Excel spreadsheets. Highly skilled tax specialists spend half their time or more with manual data cleansing, aggregation and manipulation.
PwC predicts that in the near future, the majority of tax functions will rely on professional data analysis tools to assist in the decision-making process in areas such as risk detection, planning and overall business support.

Companies want to know or achieve their desired levels of maturity but struggle in the implementation for achieving desired state or communicating this to key stakeholders of the tax function.
How we can help
Businesses have no clear or a well established Tax Risk Management Framework. Therefore identifying where do key tax exposures are or might arise, how to address and monitor them and how to develop a response is still a challenge.
How we can help
Public debate and scrutiny of tax is often misinformed and exclusively focused on corporation tax. It is necessary now more than ever to raise awareness of other taxes, such as industry-specific taxes and other contributions made to the public finances.
