A holistic credits and incentives review (for international, federal, state, and local opportunities) includes reviewing the current process for claiming tax credits and incentives and designing a tech-enabled process to identify, implement, and prioritize credits and incentives that is coordinated with the company’s strategic goals. Credits and incentives may bolster and even “pay for” a company’s sustainability initiatives.

The way multinational corporations approach their tax filings and tax transparency in general has been radically altered by sustainability reporting. sustainability-conscious stakeholders are pushing businesses to adopt voluntary tax transparency measures like publishing their worldwide tax strategy, approach to corporate tax governance, and even the amount of taxes paid by jurisdiction in order to demonstrate that they are paying their "fair share" of tax and practicing "tax good governance." KPMG employs a tech-enabled approach that helps ensure our clients develop a data-informed approach to their unique tax strategy, tax governance, and tax transparency. Our team assists with public country-by-country reporting, aids in developing a global tax strategy document, and performs a KPMG Tax sustainability Maturity Assessment.
