Getting up to speed with VAT/GST in emerging markets

A whole of business change

Emerging markets are at the forefront of the global shift from direct to indirect taxation. Reduced corporate tax rates in many countries and new or enhanced value-added-tax (VAT) or goods-and-services-tax (GST) are causing the shift.

VAT or GST implementation is invariably challenging, but there’s no need to make it any more difficult than it needs to be by leaving it until the last minute or by only involving tax and finance teams. Your entire business needs to be responsive to this change as every function, from marketing to Human Resources (HR), will be affected.
