It’s a wrap! We just finalised two intense days of our Pillar 2 masterclass in PwC’s Brussels office. One of the topics Joni Ghekiere , Stefaan De Baets and I presented on is the interaction between pillar 2 and Transfer Pricing adjustments.Great discussions and questions from the audience! Definitely a topic to be monitored carefully by Transfer Pricing teams over the coming years.

PwC's 2024 global crypto tax report has just gone live. The report covers the direct and indirect tax consequences linked to crypto in 59 countries including Belgium with contributions from my colleagues Patrice Delacroix, Dr. Jean-Philippe Van West, Dante Kerremans, Claire De Lepeleire, Annelies Renier and I.The top three tax trends explored are1) crypto tax reporting (e.g. theCrypto Asset Tax Reporting Framework)hasbecome a global phenomenon; 2) the tax implications of real-world asset#tokenisation need case-by-case consideration; and 3) the transition to tokenised payments may have unforeseen tax consequences.Follow the link in comments to see the report! ⬇

In the year of AI, EU tax regulators did not forget about cryptocurrency! In this months' publication of fiscoloog internationaal my colleagues Dr. Jean-Philippe Van West, Ward Sandra and I were invited to write a contribution on the new EU DAC8 rules covering reporting requirements for providers of crypto services. In first instance this is an important new reporting/compliance requirement but increased visibility may lead to further developments in the area of taxation for cryptocurrency.

Thanks for hosting this webinar trilogue Dr. Jean-Philippe Van West! Always exciting to get different questions and input from the audience on these fast moving developments.Some of my main takeaways: - Over 50% of participants believe the implementation of amount B will have an important impact on their overall tax model- Nearly all (99%) participants believe the EU BEFIT and TP directives will be implemented in some form with 50% expecting an implementation of at least one of the directives in their current form
