PwC Middle East and Label, the specialist RegTech company behind a leading tax transparency compliance platform, today announced an exclusive strategic collaboration to deliver a comprehensive FATCA, CRS and CARF compliance offering to financial institutions across the Middle East.
As regulatory requirements continue to evolve and tax authorities increase their focus on tax transparency initiatives, financial institutions are focusing on improving reporting accuracy, strengthening governance, and managing increasingly complex compliance obligations.
