Albert Einstein once remarked that the hardest thing in the world to understand is income tax. As tax regulations continue to evolve, especially in response to global events like COVID and wars, tax teams find themselves navigating a complex landscape of ever-changing tax regimes. Operating businesses in multiple countries only adds to the challenge, as each jurisdiction comes with its own set of tax rules and regulations. In this dynamic environment, a deep understanding of tax laws becomes paramount for ensuring compliance, identifying risks, and seizing opportunities tailored to each company’s unique needs.
