Webinar replay: Pillar 2 GloBE - latest developments and required actions

After a long time in development by OECD and member countries, the global 15% minimum tax (Pillar 2 GloBE), is close to implementation in some jurisdictions which will require adjustments from all affected groups. Our webinar was focused on the key issues and upcoming requirements in the light of the July further Administrative Guidance on Pillar 2 from the OECD and other new developments.

During this webinar we provided insights on the disclosure requirements for the 2023 financial statements, discussed the calculation requirements for the 2024 year end as well as the main new features outlined in the OECD’s Administrative Guidance and their impact, notably the revisions to the safe harbour rules and further clarifications regarding qualifying domestic minimum top-up taxes and on different tax credit regimes.
