Here’s what we discussed:
Diverse regulations and compliance requirements across multiple countries pose a significant challenge for cross-border payroll and payments. Ensuring compliance with ever-changing tax laws, labor regulations, and data protection requirements adds complexity and increases the risk of non-compliance penalties.
In this roundtable, we explored the integration of modern techniques and capabilities, emphasising their role in refining compliance. Discussions covered the operational risks associated with security or compliance gaps in international transactions, the adaptation of payroll systems to meet the evolving needs of a global workforce, the application of advanced solutions to transform payroll systems, and the potential of next-gen methods in security, AML, and other global workforce domains.
Participants gained insights into managing the operational complexities of international payments and adapting existing systems to current global standards, ensuring that their organizations remain compliant and secure in a rapidly changing regulatory environment.
We discussed topics such as:
- Dealing with the challenges of diverse international regulations on managing, calculating, processing, and executing global payroll or payment processes.
- The potential of integrating advanced techniques and capabilities into payroll systems to increase compliance and security.
- Operational risks due to security or compliance gaps in cross-border transactions.
- Challenges while adapting payroll and payment systems to meet the needs of a changing global workforce.
This roundtable offered an opportunity to share strategies for leveraging these technologies to effectively navigate the complexities of global payments.
