UK Pillar Two: Painting while the paint dries: Doug McHoney (PwC’s International Tax Services Global Leader) is joined by Matt Ryan at PwC’s Global Tax Symposium in Rome. Matt is a London-based international tax partner and PwC UK’s Pillar Two Leader. Doug and Matt revisit the UK Pillar Two rules for the third time, but now from an enacted law perspective.
