SGV Chairman and Country Managing Partner Wilson P. Tan (WPT) was one of the panelists at a tax webinar hosted by the Tax Management Association of the Philippines (TMAP) last 18 February. WPT and other panelists discussed the implications, implementation, and industry issues of the Corporate Recovery and Tax Incentives for Enterprises (CREATE) bill.
As a member of the Association of Certified Public Accountants in Public Practice (ACPAPP), WPT represented the organization and discussed the financial reporting considerations and implications of the bill, particularly on the proposed retroactive adjustments in corporate income tax rate. WPT, who is the Chairman of the Philippine Interpretations Committee (PIC), also covered the salient provisions of a new guidance recently issued by the PIC on the financial reporting implications of the CREATE bill and its anticipated passage into a law.
