When good tax decisions go wrong: Governance, filing positions and HMRC scrutiny

Zoom Webinar | 14 May 2026 | 10:00 - 11:00

Most tax risk does not arise from aggressive tax planning. It arises from ordinary decisions that were not governed well enough to be defensible years later.

This interactive webinar will explore why tax governance has become a critical and increasingly scrutinised area for businesses of all sizes. Drawing on real-world examples and practical insight, the session will walk through the full lifecycle of a tax decision  and examine where risk is created at each stage.

The webinar will cover:

• The shift in why tax governance is now a board issue

• What HMRC’s Guidelines for Compliance 13 (GfC13) is really asking for

• The hidden gap between advisory, compliance, due diligence and disputes

• Patterns from historic tax disputes
• The impact of mandatory adviser registration

• What good tax governance looks like in practice

Designed for inhouse tax teams across all sectors, this webinar will also be relevant to professionals who are interested in learning more about how to identify, manage and mitigate tax risk within their organisations.
