Hello,
Autumn is the period of regional conferences at the ICV. Some of them are already behind us but there are still some to choose when you are looking for an interesting event for controllers. It’s a great possibility to inform yourself on the new trends in controlling and finance, to exchange experiences and get to know new people – among them are many ICV members.
Remember that membership in the ICV entitles you to discounts at many of them – it’s only one of the advantages the membership gives you.

|
|
“Building blocks for a sustainable finance future for Europe” |
|
Finance Watch, together with GABV and Mission 2020, published a white paper on financial sector reforms that could help deliver a sustainable finance transformation in Europe. The report identifies eleven reforms that would help to build a renewed and sustainable financial system, including realigning finance with society’s needs and helping individual citizens to invest in a sustainable economy. The recommendations include e.g. sustainability assessments for bank assets, banks to formulate their purpose in public and in line with the SDGs and the mission 2020 agenda, creating a European hub for sustainable infrastructure investments, training for finance workers on sustainability issues, reporting of sustainability metrics for financial institutions and loyalty shares to encourage longer term outlook in corporate governance.

Industry anticipates rising defense budgets in Europe |

Unresolved conflicts, new security threats and calls for increased military spending from across the Atlantic conspire to put Europe's defense policy under pressure. Faced with such geopolitical turbulence, more than 90 percent of the industry's suppliers expect to see Europe's defense budgets rising. This is one of the key findings of the latest Aerospace and Defense (A&D) Management Issues Radar. In producing their study, Roland Berger experts canvassed the opinions of some 220 business leaders and executives from across the aerospace and defense sector globally.

| WHY DOES THE EU's VAT SYSTEM NEED REFORM? |
|
|
Q&A on VAT reform in the EU |
|
The current VAT rules for cross-border trade between businesses in EU member states date back to 1993, just after the creation of the Single Market. At the time, they were meant to be transitional. The rules do not take into account technological developments, changes in business models or the globalization of the economy, making them outdated. Crucially, the current VAT regime exposes EU countries to an unacceptable and damaging level of VAT fraud. Revenue losses from this type of fraud are estimated at around €50 billion annually in the EU. Money which could have been used to build schools, roads and hospitals is instead spirited away by criminals to finance organized crime, and possibly terrorist organizations. Member states recently identified VAT fraud as one of their top ten priorities when it comes to the fight against organized and serious international crime (see separate section on fraud).
