Industry Standard Withholding Statements

Withholding Statements Industry Working Group

Industry cooperation and support is more important than ever before. TAINA 2019 and 2020 Global Industry Forums on Withholding Statements brought together over 50 of the world’s leading industry experts and two of the Big 4.

We discussed the proposed standard created by the Industry Working Group and agreed the next steps towards adoption. Additionally there was a regulatory update to the participants in response to COVID-19. Thank you to all of the participants for your support and feedback into the Withholding Statements Global Industry Forum.
