SUMMARY:Final Currency Rules for Foreign Branches - Section 987 Regulations
DESCRIPTION:Event description\n\n\n\nOver the course of almost 4 decades\, Congress and the IRS have enacted various laws\, regulations\, and guidance to ensure that taxpayers engaging in certain foreign currency transactions do so in a manner that is consistent and reasonable. These rules span from taxpayers operating in hyperinflationary global markets to taxpayers that transact in multiple currencies. \n\n\n\nMore recently\, the IRS has issued guidance on the branch transaction rules that are covered under Section 987. These rules generally apply to taxpayers that have one or more qualified business units (QBUs) with a functional currency that is different from that of the QBU’s tax owner. \n\n\n\nIn this webcast\, we will unpack the final regulations by providing an overview of the scope and applicability\, by discussing the transition rules\, and by covering several new simplifying elections that are available to taxpayers.  \n\n\n\nDate and time\n\n\n\nTuesday\, February 04\, 2025 \n\n\n\n2:00 PM ET – 3:00 PM ET \n\n\n\nRecommended CPE credits\n\n\n\n1 \n\n\n\nLearning objectives\n\n\n\nDetermine how these developments would apply under certain facts and circumstance and assess the impact. \n\n\n\nDemonstrate a working knowledge of  recent international tax developments.  \n\n\n\nAnalyze developments and guidance to determine their effects on your organization.

SUMMARY:Significant SALT Developments for 2024 and Predictions for 2025
DESCRIPTION:Event description\n\n\n\nAn overriding theme of the developments that we tracked from a state and local tax (SALT) perspective in 2024 related to the scope of the state tax authority. The world of administrative law experienced a dramatic shift with the U.S. Supreme Court’s June 2024 ruling in Loper Bright. Also\, the interpretation of Public Law 86-272 continued to make news\, with several developments focusing on the broader issue of how much power state tax authorities may have to interpret this federal law. The ability of taxpayers to utilize the state net operating loss attribute also received considerable attention in 2024. In California\, many taxpayers are deeply concerned by the controversial chain of events that began with a decision by the Office of Tax Appeals in Microsoft\, and continued with legislation reacting to the decision\, leading to legal challenges to the legislation itself. While no state completely shifted its corporate income tax filing method regime from separate reporting to mandatory combined reporting this past year\, Colorado and South Carolina enacted significant legislation addressing standards governing combined reporting filings. On this webcast\, we will discuss significant SALT developments\, assess predictions made in 2024 and outline expected key SALT developments for 2025.  \n\n\n\nDate and time\n\n\n\nTuesday\, January 28\, 2025 \n\n\n\n2:00 PM ET – 3:30 PM ET \n\n\n\nRecommended CPE credits\n\n\n\n1.5 \n\n\n\nLearning objectives\n\n\n\nIdentify likely occurrences in the SALT world in 2025 \n\n\n\nList major state income tax and indirect tax developments during 2024 \n\n\n\nAnalyze issues faced by state legislatures at the outset of the 2025 legislative sessions

SUMMARY:Internal Audit's Role in Navigating Cloud Concentration Risks
DESCRIPTION:Event description\n\n\n\nThe risk associated with cloud concentration and mismanagement looms large\, with potentially devastating consequences for organizations. As cloud platforms become integral to business operations\, companies are transitioning from viewing cloud security as a best practice to prioritizing resiliency.
