    The Next Financial Year: Supporting Business through the Recovery  

     Published: September 2021

    cta-nfy-2021-min

    The Next Financial Year is the Institute’s annual position paper setting out realistic proposals to government that, on adoption, would work hard for businesses on the island of Ireland. This 2021 edition prioritises the interaction between business and government in the areas of sustainability, digital transformation and business compliance. We emphasise opportunities for efficiency rather than merely seeking handouts or additional supports and call for a range of targeted tax measures. Written with the input of a range of expert chartered accountants from both Ireland and Northern Ireland, The Next Financial Year asks that the burden of ‘red tape’ be cut to the minimum and processes be improved to facilitate businesses operating effectively.
