How Elaine is building a better working world
“The local impacts of global tax reforms and diverse tax regulations in different jurisdictions present complex compliance challenges for multinationals. I assist them in reviews of their tax and finance operating models to help achieve better efficiency and governance in their tax operations across Southeast Asia while staying compliant with the latest tax regulations in each jurisdiction. I also assist companies in transforming and improving their tax accounting, reporting and compliance processes with better data and integrated tax technology.”
