SAVE THE DATE – October 21-22 (TBC)
Four Seasons Hotel, Washington (TBC)
Now in its 15th year, this annual conference provides a unique opportunity for the U.S. business community to interact with key representatives from the OECD Centre for Tax Policy and Administration (“CTPA”) as well as key members of the OECD’s Committee on Fiscal Affairs: including Pascal Saint-Amans, Director, CTPA, and Grace Perez-Navarro, Deputy Director, CTPA. 2019 speakers included Martin Kreienbaum, Chair of the OECD’s Committee on Fiscal Affairs and Director General for International Taxation at the German Federal Ministry of Finance, and Lafayette “Chip” Harter, Deputy Assistant Secretary – International Tax Affairs. Last year’s conference focused mainly on the OECD’s work on a global solution to the tax challenges posed by the digitalization of the economy. This work is on a fast track, with the G20 having asked OECD to deliver a global solution in 2020, with an update given in June 2019. With G20 Finance Ministers meeting in Japan a few days after the conference, this event provided participants a unique opportunity to hear and discuss the latest developments on this important issue.
