Where transformation meets new possibility

      Today’s tax environment is fast-moving, complex and exponentially digital. From shifting legislation and real-time reporting requirements to ERP upgrades, increased audit scrutiny and leadership changes, expectations are changing on what’s required from the tax function and how quickly it must adapt.

      At KPMG, we see these triggers not as setbacks, but as powerful catalysts for sustainable tax transformation. Whether you’re preparing for real-time digital reporting or rethinking global service delivery models, our approach to tax transformation can help you step back, reimagine the big picture and implement with purpose.

      Leveraging our Powered Tax methodology and our Tax Reimagined framework, our approach starts by aligning your tax strategy with broader enterprise goals. KPMG professionals work with you to design and implement a future aware tax target operating model, embedding tax governance into systems, building efficient service delivery models and standardizing processes to reduce risk and improve reporting from the outset.

      In doing so, we can help ensure tax becomes a driver of insight and value from within your tax function and out to your wider business. At KPMG, we believe tax transformation isn’t just about doing things differently. It’s about doing the right things better — creating a function that’s prepared for today and fit for the future.
