Company executives and tax counsel have a rare opportunity to discuss global tax policy developments affecting their businesses with leading policy makers. Top officials with the 31-nation Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, which plays a key role in setting international tax rules, will join senior U.S. officials and tax experts at a two-day conference organized by the United States Council for International Business (USCIB).
