Tax Governance and Board Level Tax Risk Management

Boards are increasingly held accountable for the tax positions their companies take, yet many directors lack a structured way to oversee tax risk. This course sets out how to build a tax governance framework, define a tax risk appetite, and report tax matters to the audit committee and board. The approach aligns with King IV expectations and the reality of SARS focus on responsible tax conduct.
