Global Information Reporting

Is your organization prepared to handle information reporting and regulatory obligations?

Financial institutions are increasingly challenged by demands from tax authorities and regulators with respect to information reporting requirements.
Our team of seasoned professionals has helped guide some of North America’s largest financial institutions, mutual fund companies, brokers and multinational corporations through the complex layers of withholding and reporting requirements under Canadian, US and global regulations.
