Tax and Law in Focus | How transparency is transforming the global tax landscape

In this episode of the Tax and Law in Focus podcast, host Susannah Streeter is joined by Aruna Kalyanam, EY Global and Americas Tax Policy Leader, Jose Murillo, EY Americas International Tax and Transaction Services Leader and Manal Corwin, Director, OECD Centre for Tax Policy and Administration to explore how transparency is reshaping the global tax environment. Over the past two decades, transparency initiatives have transformed the expectations on taxpayers and tax authorities alike.

The panel traces the origins of this transformation — from post-financial crisis reforms and the OECD’s BEPS framework, to real-time reporting standards and automatic exchange of information. They also examine how governments are using transparency to close tax gaps, reduce controversy and strengthen compliance frameworks.
