About the event

Approximately 250 Swiss headquartered organisations are currently facing the challenges of BEPS 2.0 Pillar Two. Tax and finance leaders and professionals are focusing on questions such as: is my organisation ready for Global Minimum Tax? How do we ensure that we are able to perform the required calculations as part of our financial closing process(es) going forward? How can an IT-solution help with that? Who might share experience from projects?

Join our mutual PwC Switzerland and Wolters Kluwer CCH® Tagetik BEPS Pillar Two event on Thursday, 20 June 2024.

During this event, you will learn from our experts how corporations can best manage Pillar Two requirements and use the Global Minimum Tax solution of CCH® Tagetik to help with the data gathering and required Pillar Two calculations.
