Supported Events

As the COVID-19 pandemic and community quarantines in the country approach their first anniversary we have experienced tremendous changes in the way we live and do business. Massive changes have taken place in government regulations, cyber and digital, and organizational management, to name a few. The “Pandemic Year” has shaken our view of the world, but has also shown us that we are amazingly resilient and adaptive. What referred to as “the new normal” is now simply normal. But what does the future bode for business? To help you navigate your way through these times, we are conducting a series of webinars in which we lay out the potential paths for your business. We shall explore how recently-passed tax legislation will affect your business, how the cyber and digital world will develop, and how the capital markets will possibly behave. You will also hear from our subject matter experts as we craft sustainable strategies for your organizations.

Episode 1: Banking and Financial Services Regulatory Challenges in 2021 Capitalize on opportunities, ensure compliance, and better manage risks

Date and Time: 15 March, Monday, 10:00-11:30 AM (PH Time)

Among today's disruptions are the accelerated use of online and digital technologies, long-term adoption of remote working practices, and the demand for business and risk strategies for climate and other ESG-related financial risks. Together, these will impact all aspects of a financial services company’s physical and strategic operations, technology systems and data security, products and services, customer interactions as well as third-party relationships and affiliations. With such changes come regulatory challenges and concerns. In this webinar, we offer our global and local insights on what to expect and how to navigate successfully through these uncertain times.

Episode 2: Road to CREATE Learn how CREATE seeks to create a more equitable tax system

Date and Time: 16 March, Tuesday, 10:00-11:30 AM (PH Time)

It has been a long journey for the CREATE bill. Called Package 2, then TRABAHO, then CITIRA, the CREATE bill is now awaiting the President’s signature. Introducing major tax reforms, CREATE is one of the government’s measures to provide support to businesses in their recovery from unforeseen events such as the global pandemic. It seeks also to create a more equitable tax system. However, taxpayers have to prepare for these reforms especially in view of the 15 April 2021 filing deadline. Despite CREATE’s long journey, there are still questions that need answers. There are missing details. Gather insights from us on how to operationalize CREATE.

Episode 3: Work from Home as a Business as Usual Model for the Future Build a sustainable remote working strategy

Date and Time: 17 March 2021, Wednesday, 10:00-11:30 AM (PH Time)

The global spread of COVID-19 and the imposition of social distancing requirements mandated by the government has forced companies to redefine how they conduct business and create a work from the home model for their employees. Ultimately, the past year has shown that it is possible for people to work remotely and be productive. As the return to pre-COVID normalcy seems far from our current New Reality, organizations are starting to focus their attention to strategic questions - not only about structuring how and where their people work but also whether to make the model permanent in the long-term. This is a decision that is much more complex than simply enabling remote work. In this webinar, we offer our global and local insights on what considerations management need to think through to build a sustainable remote working strategy.

Episode 4: Cybersecurity Compliance: It's More than Ticking the Box Be cybersafe and protect your assets amidst today's challenges.

Date and Time: 18 March 2021, Thursday, 10:00-11:30 AM (PH Time):

With the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, comes evolving threats to the landscape and interesting trends in security. Organizations need to adopt and demonstrate that they can protect the heart of the transformed business and realize that cybersecurity is more than compliance but rather a driving force underlying a business’ success.

Episode 5: The 2021 Capital Markets Outlook: Preparing for the Recovery Gain relevant economic and capital markets insights to use to your advantage in the New Reality

Date and Time: 19 March 2021, Friday, 10:00-11:30 AM (PH Time)

Despite the onset of the March 2020 pandemic and the varying degrees of community quarantines that ensued, the Philippine capital markets continued to be active. Corporates continued to raise funds to support the roll out of their strategies and transactions, both domestic and cross border, continued on. Fast forward to today, the private sector and the government have adjusted accordingly to the situation which changed the dynamics of the Philippine economic environment. This webinar will focus on the latest outlook of the Philippine capital markets, investment opportunities for the private sector. Audience members will be given a clear understanding of the transactions that have transpired the past 12 months and the government actions done to stimulate the economy back to pre-pandemic levels.
