Deloitte wins Middle East Tax Firm of the year at the 2023 ITR EMEA Tax awards
Deloitte won 22 awards at the 2023 International Tax Review (ITR) EMEA Tax Awards ceremony, including four regional wins, 16 at the jurisdiction level, and two in the “Individual Awards” category.
At the regional level, ITR recognized Deloitte as the “Tax Firm of the Year” for the seventh consecutive year. Other regional accolades include:
- Diversity & Inclusion Firm of the Year
- Tax Policy Firm of the Year
- Transfer Pricing Firm of the Year
Additionally, Deloitte won National Transfer Pricing Firm of the Year in 11 jurisdictions, National Tax Firm of the Year and National Indirect Tax Firm of the Year in two jurisdictions each, and National Tax Disputes Firm of the Year in one jurisdiction.
Deloitte Middle East (DME) was acknowledged as the Middle East Tax Firm of the Year. This recognition reflects Deloitte’s commitment to supporting businesses throughout the ongoing tax reform across the region.
The ITR EMEA Awards assess firms and organizations based on their performance history in the region, their innovation in tax methods, and their dedication to client service. This can be observed in activities such as the introduction of different tax offerings, collaborations with other firms and organizations, and efforts to address the needs of clients.
Alongside DME’s achievement, Hadeel Biyari, Indirect Tax Partner in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, was awarded the Tax Litigation and Disputes Rising Star. Hadeel’s expertise in tax litigation matters and her unwavering approach in addressing tax challenges led to this recognition.
As global influences and Middle East tax environment fundamentally shift how the tax function operates, tax leaders should become strategic advisors. Our people are committed to solve your toughest problems and help your organization become more agile. Lead your business through complexity with confidence.
