Top 5 trends: Emerging themes from Deloitte’s 2023 research Tax Transformation Trends 2023 Executive summary Tax departments at many companies are today undergoing fundamental transformation to respond to a significantly altered legal and regulatory landscape, including the OECD’s Pillar Two requirements, and a rise in indirect taxes around the world.
