SGV’s Tax Team held a webinar last 14 December on the Corporate Recovery and Tax Incentives for Enterprises (CREATE) bill, as approved on the 3rd and final reading by the Senate. Chairman and CMP Wilson Tan delivered the opening remarks and welcomed over 1,300 participants from the banking, hotel, manufacturing, real estate, power, BPO and insurance industries, among others.
Tax Leader Fame K. delos Santos (FKS) and Tax Partner Cheryl C. Ong (CCO) discussed the bill’s salient features, developments and incentives in corporate income tax. They also provided insights on how companies can maximize and prepare for the proposed tax reforms. Tax Principal Lucil Vicerra also discussed Customs Audit Reminders, including VAT incentives and Performance Commitments.
The webinar concluded with a question and answer portion led by FKS and CCO, who were assisted by Tax Partner Thyrza Marbas. Tax Senior Manager Betheena Dizon hosted the session. The webinar’s organizing team included Tax Senior Manager Karen Mae Calam; Manager Aiza Giltendez; and Senior Associates Wennonah Marie Garces, Kyle Almero, and Ma. Gabriellen Quijada.
