Deloitte’s UK and OECD tax policy teams will join local tax partners for the annual Channel Islands International Tax Debate webinar on 16 June.
With international tax rules evolving and having more impact on the commercial and tax rationale for structures established in the Channel Islands, the debate will look ahead at what's on the tax horizon.
During the webinar, which is free to attend, Deloitte specialists will discuss:
• The OECD’s anti base erosion project, which has evolved into complex proposals including the concept of a minimum tax rate
• Economic substance becoming a global standard
• Brexit bringing ongoing uncertainty and, for the UK, a desire to evolve and be more competitive
• Covid-19 necessitating historic levels of government investment and significant fiscal pressures
• ESG presenting opportunities for governments and business to change the way they operate
• The increasing focus of governments on tax transparency and disclosure, meaning the islands must be ready to react and participate
Speakers will include:
• UK Tax Partner and Deloitte’s UK Head of Tax Policy Amanda Tickel – an overview of how jurisdictions such as Guernsey and Jersey might react to the changing political and taxation environment
• International Tax Partner Alison Lobb – update on OECD proposals, in particular the Pillar 2 Blueprint
• Investment Management Tax Partner at Deloitte UK Katherine Worraker and Transactions Tax Director Joe Macklin Gray – how will consultations by the UK government about the UK funds sector provide challenges and opportunities for Channel Islands structures?
The event will be held via Zoom from 12.30pm to 2pm on 16 June. To attend, contact Mandy Sangan at ukgurmarketingevents@deloitte.co.uk
