Corporate and International Tax

Managing the tax burden of enterprises, either at national level or cross border, is an increasingly complex task, requiring specific support and high-level specialization. Additionally, the failure in complying with tax obligations represents  not only a financial risk, but also an operational risk, compromising the reputation of the companies with the authorities and the public in general.
