12th European Conference on Tax Advisers’ Professional Affairs

The 12th European Conference on Tax Advisers’ Professional Affairs, organized by CFE Tax Advisers Europe and the Institut des Avocats Conseils Fiscaux (IACF), took place on 29 November 2019 in Paris, France. This annual conference brings together tax professionals from across Europe to discuss pressing issues affecting the profession.

The 2019 conference focused on the theme "Making Anti-Money Laundering More Effective For Tax Advisers." Key topics included the perceived risks posed by tax professionals in facilitating money laundering, compliance with EU Anti-Money Laundering Directives, and the broader international efforts to combat money laundering and tax evasion.

Attendees had the opportunity to engage in in-depth discussions on the implementation of new and existing EU Anti-Money Laundering Directives, as well as to explore the overall effect of these measures on tax evasion. The conference provided a platform for networking among tax advisers, regulators, and policymakers, fostering collaboration and the exchange of best practices.

This event was particularly relevant for tax advisers, compliance officers, and legal professionals seeking to enhance their understanding of anti-money laundering regulations and their impact on the tax advisory profession.
