About the Seminar
The Tax Academy of Singapore (TA), in partnership with the Singapore Institute of Directors (SID), presents a timely boardroom dialogue examining why tax is increasingly becoming a board-level strategic consideration.
As global tax reforms, geopolitical uncertainty, artificial intelligence and growing stakeholder expectations reshape the operating environment, tax can no longer be viewed solely as a compliance matter. Decisions involving business strategy, investment, M&A, governance and reputation increasingly carry significant tax implications.
This seminar brings together perspectives from international tax policy, academia, tax administration, global industry and board leadership to explore how Boards can better anticipate emerging risks, strengthen governance and make informed decisions in an increasingly volatile and complex environment.
