ABOUT THE CONTENT

Complexity is increasing. Financing events, M&A, and digital transformation are signs of healthy, growing companies. However, finance, accounting and tax leaders are struggling to manage the complexities associated with tax compliance, including changing government regulations around economic nexus spurred by the US Supreme Court ruling in SD v. Wayfair one year ago. Our industry panel will discuss lessons learned, experiences, and recommendations in an informal fashion without recordings, press, or social media hampering our exchange of knowledge.
