Deloitte organizes today its Tax & Legal Annual Conference

Professionals and businesspeople will discuss challenges and opportunities resulting from the current tax & legal framework

Every year, Deloitte's tax and legal consultants invite the business community to a Conference discussing the latest updates of the tax & legal framework, challenges and opportunities for the near term, as well as new trends in the international and local legislation that might support businesses in their daily activities. 

Among topics to be discussed, the agenda includes general updates by the Deloitte service lines (direct and indirect taxation, legal services delivered by the correspondent law firm Reff & Associates and Business Process Outsourcing), as well as dedicated sessions approaching tax and legal issues in specific industries (Financial Services, Pharma, Retail and Manufacturing) and areas like employment mobility.  

One speaking slot and a dedicated workshop have been reserved for a topic that tax professionals expect to become more important to local businesses in the near future - tax risk management. 

"In an environment where the impact of fiscal uncertainty and changes in the revenue service approach are among the business community's most frequently identified challenges, tax risk management goes at the top of leaders' agenda,” says Alexandru Reff, Deloitte Tax & Legal Partner in Charge. "This involves in-depth knowledge of the local and European legislation, the context of fiscal control, best practices for both fiscal authorities and business community. This is why we have invited Robbert Hoyng, Tax Partner with Deloitte Netherlands, to share with our guests the knowledge and expertise from one of the most developed fiscal markets in Europe.”
