Exclusive lunch roundtable

A senior peer discussion on Australian Global Minimum Tax (GMT) and Domestic Minimum Tax (DMT) compliance, , technology and next-cycle priorities.
Tuesday 6 October 2026 (Melbourne)

Practical lessons for the next phase of Pillar Two compliance
Join Thomson Reuters and EY for an exclusive lunch roundtable focused on the practical realities of Australia's Global Minimum Tax and Domestic Minimum Tax regime under OECD Pillar Two.
For in-scope multinational enterprise groups, the conversation has moved beyond readiness planning. Tax, finance, accounting and technology teams are now managing recurring obligations involving GloBE Information Return reporting, Australian Global Minimum Tax and Domestic Minimum Tax returns, data collection, safe-harbour analysis, tax provisioning, governance and stakeholder coordination. This invitation-only session will bring together senior leaders from Australia-headquartered and Australia-based multinational enterprises to discuss lessons from the first filing cycle and the changes needed before the next reporting period.
Together, we will explore the practical issues organisations are encountering, including data availability and quality, governance and controls, Australian Domestic Minimum Tax calculations, financial-reporting touchpoints, documentation, workflow management and the move from manual workarounds toward a sustainable compliance operating model.
The discussion will include perspectives from Thomson Reuters, EY and the Australian Taxation Office.
