The PwC team has won the prestigious ITR EMEA Tax Awards 2021, garnering widespread national recognition for its tax work.
This year’s winners of the EMEA Tax Awards were announced during a virtual awards ceremony on September 9, 2021. The ITR EMEA Tax Awards have taken place annually since 2005 and recognise remarkable achievements and developments by international tax professionals from the EMEA region over a 12-month period.
Slava Vlasov, Partner, Leader, Tax and Legal Services at PwC in Ukraine, who led his team to this success comments:
“This is the second time our team in Ukraine has won this prestigious award since 2018. Last year, the PwC network was named the European Tax Policy Firm of the Year, and our local team contributed to this joint regional success a lot.
What makes this year's award really special is that it proves our practice's sustainability and resilience during the turbulent pandemic year of 2020. To achieve greater results we have been focusing on our people in order to create a community of solvers delivering sustained outcomes both for our clients and society and building trust for today and tomorrow.
Thanks to my great team, which is empowered by technologies, during the preceding year we delivered to the market a strong record of success stories: the first AEO status in Ukraine was granted with PwC’s support, we brought big international players to Ukraine’s market and contributed to the success of their business operations in Ukraine, we have been selected as the preferred tax and legal advisor by dozens of world-wide known corporations. Many relevant cutting-edge solutions delivered by our team helped our clients to address and navigate through their current corporate and personal challenges in Ukraine, especially in the COVID-19 environment.
I would like to thank all 500+ businesses which trusted our team in 2020 to build up their future, and who saw us as true firebrands and recommended our tax team as the strongest one on the Ukraine’s market!”
