On Thursday, June 13th at 11.30 AM CET, Marcus Evans Webinars team up with Financial Consultancy firm, BearingPoint to discuss the new DAC6 directive.

Why This Webinar

DAC6 is a new directive that affects any EU intermediaries, for example the banks, regardless of whether they are companies or individuals, who create, market, manage or are informed about cross-border arrangements. DAC6 is already live (since June 2018) and the first reporting is due mid-2020. Non-compliance will result in significant penalties.

This tax directive impacts intermediaries’ processes and ways of working. DAC6 should require team training and the implementation of new systems and software solution so that information can be collected and reported effectively. To further complicate matters from a business and technical point of view, the local rules and the formats of the reporting are different in various countries.

One thing is for sure, it is already time for financial institutions to prepare what is needed to implement DAC6, and to collect the relevant data.

Webinar Agenda Includes:

  • The directive DAC6 and its local interpretations
  • How to manage tax reporting: globally or locally?
  • The relevance of tax reporting automation

>>THIS WEBINAR IS SOLELY FOR FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS AND FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES <<
