Australia has introduced various measures that target multinational enterprises and businesses and provide for increased tax transparency to the public.
Effective tax governance ensures compliance with the law and ethical tax practices. It not only plays an important role in our ESG landscape, but also aligns with social expectations.
Against the backdrop of the intertwined relationship between tax governance and ESG, we work closely with clients to manage their tax risks and ensure they have a well-designed tax governance framework.
We can assist with:
- General tax advice, including in relation to GST and stamp duty
- Compliance with domestic tax governance policies and the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) and the Common Reporting Standard (CRS)
- Board governance documents and policies
- he structure of investment funds to facilitate investment in energy (including renewable) and decarbonisation projects
- Intra-group service agreements and trust deeds
- Sales of interest in Australian data centre assets
- Incorporation and registration as a charity
