Today’s corporate tax departments are in the early stages of technology adoption. Following a path similar to traditional CPM, the first step was to automate the close. But, that is just the first step of many. As accounting regulatory bodies continue to move the target, the next steps will be to lay a foundation for change as well as focus on the more value-added areas of the tax department.

This free session will include a panel of industry experts who will discuss the trends in tax reporting and how the use of tax technology can help your company keep ahead of the curve.

Key Topics include:

• What role does accounting/finance play in process improvement around tax reporting?
• How will the convergence of IFRS and US GAAP impact the tax function?
• What are reasonable expectations for the benefits of implementing a tax provision solution?
• What are the top three issues facing tax departments in the near future?
