#PwC Hong Kong recently hosted the BEPS 2.0 Pillar Two Academy, a comprehensive two-day in-person interactive workshop where we navigate through the #PillarTwo rules with participants, providing insights and practical examples. We were excited to see strong engagement from participants as we tackled the complexities of Pillar Two. The key areas covered by the workshop included: - The GloBE Rules, including common mistakes in calculating GloBE Income or Loss and Adjusted Covered Taxes - Pillar Two compliance and reporting obligations, such as the GloBE Information Return, disclosures, and tax provisioning - Common challenges faced by multinational enterprises (MNEs) and strategies for ensuring readiness for Pillar Two implementation As Pillar Two rules take effect, it is essential for multinational enterprises (MNEs) to stay informed and prepare for this new tax era. By proactively navigating these changes, they can position themselves for sustained success in an evolving landscape, and we are committed to helping businesses stay ahead of the curve.

On 30 October 2024, the HKSAR Government released the consultation outcome on the implementation of the global minimum tax and the Hong Kong minimum top-up tax. We are pleased that the Government has carefully considered the constructive comments provided by various stakeholders including PwC, and thoroughly consulted the #OECD . An amendment bill is expected to be introduced in January 2025. Find out more about our observations: https://lnkd.in/g3Fum_hj #PwC #PwCHK #ProfitsTax #BEPS #PillarTwo

Along with the proposed development of high-value-added maritime services, green maritime centre, smart port, new tax regime enhancements and related initiatives in the Chief Executive’s 2024 Policy Address, PwC Hong Kong recently co-hosted an event with the Hong Kong Shipowners Association ( #HKSOA ). Our Chinese Mainland and Hong Kong Transportation and Logistics Industry Tax Leader, Agnes Wong , and HKSOA’s Managing Director, Sandy Chan, provided insights on the maritime industry developments. As part of the Hong Kong SAR Government’s effort to enhance Hong Kong’s competitiveness, the introduction of the proposed company inward re-domiciliation regime in Hong Kong may offer a cost-effective restructuring alternative to MNEs, maximising continuity over business operations, and substantially reducing administrative complexity and compliance burden compared to other routes for relocating to Hong Kong. Our expert panel of speakers, Ingrid Lau , Ivy Chow , Joyce Tung , and Emily Chak , also provided a comprehensive overview of the re-domiciliation regime under the latest legislative proposals and highlighted key features, as well as considerations from company secretarial, corporate governance, legal, and tax perspectives.

The Court of Appeal recently handed down its judgment in Patrick Cox Asia Limited v Commissioner of Inland Revenue, which concerns the taxability of certain income in relation to sublicensing of trademarks. The court’s decision is significant in several aspects, including refining the general source rules for royalties from sub-licensing intellectual property and indicating the possibility of apportioning royalties.

According to PwC’s ‘Global Entertainment & Media Outlook 2024 to 2028’ Hong Kong summary, Hong Kong’s #entertainment and #media (E&M) revenue saw a slight increase of 4.5% year-on-year in 2023. The market is forecast to slow to 2.3%, reaching US$12.87bn in 2024. Projections show E&M in Hong Kong will have a steady compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.06% between 2023 and 2028, with revenue expected to reach US$14bn in 2028. The business-to-business segment is on course for higher growth than its global and Asia Pacific counterparts between 2023 and 2028. However, the growth of print media continues to lag, as digital advertising has become the dominant channel. Learn more about the report: https://lnkd.in/gvB2EtQv #PwC #PwCHK #EntertainmentandMedia

This Wednesday, PwC brought together close to 300 global and regional financial services tax leaders at our 2024 Asia Pacific Financial Services Tax Conference. It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with our community of clients, colleagues, and friends, and discuss the critical tax issues and developments shaping the industry. Here are some key takeaways: - Five global megatrends have created expense and revenue uncertainty for financial services firms: diverging and high interest rates, stubborn inflation, regulatory complexity, rise of data and #AI , and demographic shifts. - The tax function is ripe for transformation, as reliance solely on personnel is no longer sufficient to meet today’s challenges. Changes like Pillar Two play a crucial role in this evolution, with the focus redirected to enhancing data accuracy and leveraging AI to analyse changes effectively. By integrating technology, the tax function can streamline processes and improve decision-making, positioning itself as a vital strategic partner within the organisation. - Agile access to data is essential for effective scenario planning in tax, particularly in light of ongoing global governmental changes. This shift will drive a heightened focus on tax compliance and business risk reviews, increasingly powered by technology and AI. Leveraging data will be key to staying ahead of regulatory requirements and mitigating potential risks. Thank you to all our guest speakers, clients, and representatives from leading financial institutions and professional bodies who attended the event.

The two measures will take effect from 2024/25 upon passage of the bill. In welcome news, the Government adopted PwC's recommendations on the transitional issues.

Yesterday, PwC Hong Kong released a forecast highlighting the ongoing challenges Hong Kong's #retail sector is facing in 2024. Our Consumer Markets Leader, Michael Cheng , shared that amid a confluence of factors, including the transformation of consumption patterns and the impact of continued strength of US Dollar and hence Hong Kong Dollar, Hong Kong retail sales have been severely impacted for the first eight months of 2024. Increased outbound travel by residents, and people heading to Shenzhen also led to weak consumption in Hong Kong. Nevertheless, with China’s recent consumption downgrade under the unprecedented economic impacts, wide-ranging stimulus measures intended to stimulate consumption and revive capital markets by the Central Government will aid consumers and boost the purchasing power of Chinese consumers benefiting from the wealth effect, along with various measures introduced by the Central Government with the objective to invigorate market sentiment earlier this year. PwC expects a gradual improvement in the retail sector from the fourth quarter onwards and predicts a 6% decline in total retail sales, amounting to HKD383 billion in 2024. The luxury retail sector in the Chinese Mainland and Hong Kong is currently experiencing signs of consolidation, with subdued demand indicating a slowdown in consumer spending. However, Rebecca Wong , PwC South China Tax Markets Leader, pointed out that favourable treatments for tax-exempt consumption and reduction in import taxes will boost inbound tourism and domestic consumption in China. Certain cities of the Greater Bay Area also encourage advanced supply chain management, design and branding businesses by providing tax incentives and talent subsidies. Hong Kong #retailers should make use of these new policies to explore new markets, new products and new business models; and bring in our international retail expertise to penetrate to the Chinese Mainland market. The retail market is currently facing a significant talent shortage, a challenge that has become particularly acute in certain sectors. Michael Cheng , Workforce Lead Partner of PwC Hong Kong, remarked that as retailers increasingly adopt #AI technologies to enhance operations and customer experiences, they encounter a dual challenge: the need for skilled workers who can effectively leverage these technologies and the imperative to maintain human elements in service delivery. The integration of AI alongside human capabilities is essential not only for addressing the talent shortage but also for fostering a more resilient workforce.
