At re­gu­lar in­ter­vals, RSM Eb­ner Stolz, to­ge­ther with Prof. Willi Diez, for­mer head of the In­sti­tute for the Au­to­mo­tive In­dus­try (IFA) at the Nürtin­gen-Geis­lin­gen Uni­ver­sity of Ap­plied Sci­en­ces, ta­kes a close look at the au­to­mo­tive in­dus­try. In this year's study, ‘Au­to­mo­tive in­dus­try in cri­sis mode – Quo va­dis elec­tric mo­bi­lity – the Chi­nese chal­lenge?’, they ask how elec­tric mo­bi­lity will de­ve­lop, what chal­len­ges from China the Eu­ro­pean au­to­mo­tive in­dus­try will have to face and what ac­tion will be nee­ded in the short and me­dium ter

From fi­nan­cial year 2024 on­wards, large cor­po­rate groups must ex­amine the ex­tent to which a tax in­crease is payable due to the re­qui­re­ments of the glo­bal mi­ni­mum tax. Even if all group en­ti­ties are ba­sed in coun­tries with a no­mi­nal cor­po­rate tax rate well above the mi­ni­mum tax rate of 15 %, the is­sue of glo­bal mi­ni­mum tax is not re­sol­ved. Howe­ver, tem­porary re­lief can be uti­li­sed and should tem­pora­rily re­duce the ad­mi­nis­tra­tive bur­den in many ca­ses.

Le­gal re­qui­re­ments, com­plex tasks, con­flic­ting in­te­rests: these are just a few of the chal­len­ges fa­cing com­pa­nies to­day – and they are of­ten more than a sin­gle la­wyer can handle alone. That’s why you need a full-ser­vice law firm at your side – one with ex­perts in every area of law that af­fect your com­pany.
