Navigating the Global Tax Landscape: Strategies, Updates and Insights
Watch PKF O’Connor Davies explore the latest developments in international tax, trade, tariffs and compliance. Hear from leading tax professionals and legal experts as they share practical insights and global perspectives on tariffs, mobility, M&A and the evolving global minimum tax regime.
Key Topics:
- Global Tax Rules Are Getting More Complex
Speakers highlighted how fast-changing U.S. and international tax rules are creating new challenges for globally active companies. From entity selection and treaty limitations to sales tax exposure and LLC missteps for foreign owners, businesses must plan early to avoid costly surprises. - Pillar Two Is Driving Major Compliance Changes
The global minimum tax regime is now a reality and the 15% effective tax rate requires detailed data modeling, new reporting systems and constant monitoring of uneven global adoption. Companies were encouraged to begin assessing their exposure now instead of waiting for deadlines to hit. - IRS Oversight Is Expanding
Attendees gained insight into evolving IRS enforcement, AI-driven review tools and ongoing modernization efforts. While electronic systems are improving, international taxpayers still face obstacles, making accurate documentation and proactive compliance more important than ever. - Global Mobility Brings Tax and Immigration Challenges
The mobility panel underscored how visa rules, compensation structures and expatriation decisions directly affect tax obligations for employees and employers. Staying compliant now requires coordinated planning across tax, legal and HR teams. - Cross-Border M&A Requires Early Alignment
Specialists stressed that tax issues — from transfer pricing and repatriation strategies to deal structuring and state nexus — can shape valuations or slow negotiations. Integrated planning helps prevent surprises and keeps transactions on track.Featured Speakers:
