To combat fraud and ensure economic transparency, governments around the world are increasingly focusing on the real-time accuracy of data to enable real or near real time reporting. Consequently, diligent tax-paying companies are faced with new external pressures to fulfil these growing number of country-specific tax regulations that are varied in requirements.

To help tax professionals navigate this balancing act, this panel discussion with experts from domains of tax and technology will explore:

  • The growth and challenges of varied e-invoicing mandate in EMEA and across the world

  • How e-invoicing adoption could help you reduce business complexity while staying compliant

  • Role of automation and technology in problem solving for this blended business and compliance challenge

Ultimately, businesses need to think holistically as the boundaries between finance processes, IT enablement and tax compliance are becoming increasingly blurred. Join us for an interactive session to help you gear up for these discussions and leading these process changes with your business
