Mapping and managing the tax-related risks for multiple entities can be complex and tedious, especially when spread across various systems and documents.

Impero helps you document risk across your organization in one centralized system. Simply login and gain an overview of all your tax-related risks in the Risk Directory.

Set up tags so that you can easily filter based on type of tax risk, for example: corporate tax, VAT or payroll tax. For a more visual overview, our customizable Risk Map lets you evaluate risks before- and after controls are set up.
