About the Company
- KPMG delivers Tax Reimagined through a combination of KPMG Regional Centres of Excellence and in-country teams, both of whom are supported by our KPMG Delivery Network (KDN).
- This brings together a wealth of local and regional experience relevant to businesses around the world.
- As our clients increasingly make global and regional decision, the role of the Regional Centres of Excellence – in EMA, Latin America and Asia Pacific – is critical to bringing a globally consistent view to such engagements whilst working with in-country teams to understand the intricacies of local tax laws and resulting business impacts, and how to leverage opportunities and help minimize risks.
