KPMG LLP has announced the establishment of the Tax Governance Institute, an open forum for board members, management, stakeholders and government representatives to debate various aspects of tax oversight and management.Through video and audio Webcasts, roundtables, other events and its Web site, the institute's goal is to regularly bring together interested parties to discuss tax matters of common concern relating to the day-to-day and long-term management of corporate tax risk. The institute will soon announce regularly scheduled events. Other online features will include a library of thought leadership and relevant business news, and interactive polling to help gauge the marketplace's awareness of emerging topics.
