On Monday, 19 May, our Partner and Head of Tax Panagiotis Pothos served as a moderator at this year’s Thessaloniki Tax Forum, organized by American – Hellenic Chamber of Commerce, leading the panel discussion titled:
“The New Needs of Finance Departments Amid Modern Tax Requirements.”

The session explored how finance departments are transforming in response to increasing regulatory complexity and the imminent demands of digitalization.
Key themes discussed included:
▪️ How the finance departments tried to update internal policies to catch up with the rapid digitalization of tax compliance procedures (including myDATA and electronic invoicing)
▪️ The urgency for both public and private sectors to accelerate their adaptation to technological change despite the significant challenges they face since for the enterprises this shall be the key to survival and success
▪️ The need for structured training across all levels of both the finance departments and tax administration officials to ensure that they all align with reform and modernization efforts
