The US continues to work toward putting its new tax regime into place but internal and external forces—including efforts by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) to reform international tax standards—could compel even more changes to the US tax system in the new decade said Lynda K Walker Esq executive director and general counsel of TCPI Business executives need to evaluate and anticipate what the substance and direction of those changes may be so their organizations can best navigate further shifts in the tax landscape
Walker said TCPI's two-day symposium will feature keynote speakers panels and discussion forums and bring together leaders from business government and academia to consider how the US tax system might evolve
As a significant issue for financial management and boards tax is – or should be – high on the agendas of corporate leaders said Manal Corwin principal-in-charge of the Washington National Tax practice of KPMG LLP We at KPMG believe that now is the right time for the symposium's topics to be discussed and debated and are pleased to be working with TCPI to help spotlight this important program
The program designed to provide attendees with a better understanding of near- and longer-term tax challenges facing their organizations will also introduce new features including expanded use of technology mini-sessions with debates and breakout sessions with separate tracks for domestic international policy and technical issues
