Podcast overview
The Pillar Two rules will go into effect at the beginning of 2024 and time is quickly running out for multinationals to determine the impact. The good news is that there is a transitional safe harbor available that can significantly reduce the time and effort required to comply with Pillar Two.
In this episode, KPMG Department of Professional Practice partner Nick Tricarichi is joined by Marissa Rensen, KPMG Washington National Tax managing director, for an engaging conversation about this transitional safe harbor. We tell you how to qualify for the safe harbor and highlight areas that could potentially cause miscalculations. We close the episode by asking Marissa to put on her coaching hat and provide some practical tips on what companies should be doing now to take advantage of the safe harbor.
