It is with pleasure that I introduce to you the third edition of the AEX-Midkap Group brochure. Our team was formed more than three years ago and has experienced rapid growth. The focus of the team remains on the top 50 Dutch listed companies and financial institutions.
Profound change is taking place in the international tax landscape for multinational enterprises. Managing tax risk and compliance has increasingly become a key element in the tax function. Recently, the stepped up activity by OECD and the European
Commission with respect to profit shifting and base erosion and the increased attention by Non-Government Organizations and the public at large for international tax planning have become major considerations in running the tax function. More than ever taxation is present in the boardroom.
Our team strives to combine technical excellence with appropriate appreciation of the interests of relevant stakeholders.
On behalf of the team, I trust that you will find this brochure useful.
