The Future of Tax: Connected Modeling and an AI-Enabled Tax Function

Navigating the ever-changing global tax landscape

Turning tax complexity into strategic insight

Global tax rules are evolving at speed, impacting multinational organizations across the US and other major jurisdictions. From Pillar Two and corporate alternative minimum tax (CAMT) to increasing data and reporting demands, tax leaders are under pressure to deliver accuracy, agility, and insight, often with fragmented systems and manual processes.

KPMG believes the future of tax lies in connected data, advanced modeling, and embedded AI, bringing clarity and control to an increasingly complex tax landscape.

Why connected modeling matters

Despite ongoing transformation efforts, many tax teams still operate across disconnected enterprise resource planning systems (ERPs), spreadsheets, and local systems. The result is time‑consuming reconciliations, inconsistent data, and limited visibility when it matters most.

A connected modeling approach enables tax teams to:

Establish a single, reliable source of tax‑relevant data

Align modeling, compliance, and planning on consistent inputs

Assess the impact of legislative and business change more quickly

Shift focus from manual effort to higher‑value, strategic decision‑making

For both global and US‑based tax functions, connected modeling supports a more resilient and forward‑looking operating model.

A smarter, more integrated tax function

KPMG Digital Gateway brings together tax data, workflows, analytics, and modeling within a unified digital environment. Rather than managing tax processes in silos, organizations can operate within a connected ecosystem designed to support consistency, transparency, and insight across jurisdictions.

AI and automation are embedded into core processes, helping improve efficiency, accelerate cycles, and enhance confidence in outcomes, without sacrificing control.

The result is a tax function that is better connected, more adaptable, and positioned to support the business with confidence. Explore our point of view on how leading organizations are modernizing their tax functions for what’s next.
