  BACKGROUND INFORMATION

  The OECD has, for some time, been attempting to ensure a fair taxation of the digitalised economy. An effort which started off initially through BEPS Action One has now developed to a ‘Two-Pillar Solution to address the tax challenges arising from the digitalisation of the economy’, a project which admittedly extends beyond the digitalised economy and which will undoubtedly have an impact on all sectors. This session will primarily focus on the first pillar of the solution, which is primarily targeted at re-allocating taxing rights away from Multinational Enterprise’s home countries to the markets where they have business activities and earn profits, regardless of whether they have a physical presence therein.

  SPECIFIC TOPICS TO BE COVERED DURING THE SESSION

  • OECD BEPS Action 1

  • Pillar One

  • Examples of digital taxes in foreign jurisdictions.

  Target Audience

  Advisors to and finance/tax teams of groups operating digital or online businesses.

  WHY IS THE SESSION OF RELEVANCE TO OUR MEMBERS?

  This session will give attendees a high-level understanding of the international developments in relation to the taxation of Multinational enterprises and highlight unilateral measures which have been introduced as interim solutions.

  BACKGROUND INFORMATION

  The EU AI Act was approved by the European Parliament in March 2024, and aims to introduce a regulatory infrastructure that will primarily seek to manage and mitigate the risks arising from high-risk AI typologies, while prohibiting specific AI applications that have been deemed to be incompatible with the public interest. It is expected to define global policy around AI regulation. Compliance with the requirements of the AI is a requirement for any EU business or enterprise that is seeking to implement AI technologies into its workstreams – even within those workstreams which appear to be entirely traditional, and to both AI developers and persons looking to implement third-party AI technology into their processes.

  SPECIFIC TOPICS TO BE COVERED DURING THE SESSION

  This session will aim to introduce attendees to the core notions underpinning AI and its relevance to modern society, touching upon practical applications and key pain points which create a need for regulation. Focus will then shift to the provisions of the incoming EU AI Act and how it aims to regulate artificial intelligence to create trust and accountability without stifling innovation. The session will provide a practical analysis into the process of compliance, and the steps which a person falling within scope of the AI Act must follow in order to utilise AI technologies in a manner which is compliant with the requirements of the EU AI Act.

  Why is the session of relevance to our members?

  Members and non-members with a general interest in AI technology are encouraged to attend, particularly if they form part of any business that may fall within scope of the EU AI Act because it implements or interacts with AI technology
