Overview of Pillar 2 and PwC's Pillar 2 Engine

PwC's Pillar 2 engine is a game changer for Pillar 2 modeling, provision, and compliance calculations. It is a centralized rules engine built by a team of Pillar 2 tax experts from around the globe. Pillar 2 is happening with countries like the EU, UK, and Canada implementing it. Implementation is set to begin in January 2024, but there are concerns about the availability of legislation, guidance, and forms. The UTPR (Under-Taxed Payment Rule) in 2025 is a challenge, and there is a need for clarity on the interpretation and incorporation of administrative guidance and FAQs.
