Tax Risk Management, ADR & Litigation Masterclass

Published on 30 May 2012 | Took place at RACV Club, Melbourne, VIC

The introduction of tax risk management tools such as the risk differential framework means that we all have to focus on tax risk management and what to do if disputes arise. Through a combination of industry expertise and ATO insight on current approaches this event explored the key areas relevant to controlling risk and approaching tax disputes and litigation.

The event ended with an update on the current Part IVA proposals - a necessity if you want to keep up to date with the amendment proposals.
