Programme Synopsis

Tax authorities around the world are gravitating towards adoption of tax governance regimes. The Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS) launched two new voluntary compliance initiatives in February 2022 – the Tax Governance Framework (TGF) and Tax Risk Management and Control Framework for Corporate Income Tax (CTRM). These initiatives are modelled upon the successful implementation of the IRAS’ Goods and Services Tax Assisted Compliance Assurance Programme and tax governance regimes implemented by other tax authorities like in Australia, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands.

The developing tax regulatory landscape demands for greater transparency in tax compliance and reporting. The heightened reporting requirements present challenges for global companies and many recognise the need to rethink, establish, operate and evidence their tax risk management framework. Achieving an agile and fit-for-purpose tax governance model is not a binary exercise. A robust tax governance adoption requires cohesive efforts in stakeholder management, understanding the tone set at the top on tax risk management being a key business risk, alignment of the company’s core value and business objectives in achieving its environmental, social and governance strategy and mandate.

Join us in this upcoming webinar as Accredited Tax Advisor (Income Tax) Ms Allison Cheung, Asia Pacific Tax Reporting & Strategy Leader, PwC Singapore, and Ms Jazlyn Tan, Tax Reporting & Strategy Director, PwC Singapore shares with us the practical aspects of tax governance adoption in Singapore.
