Approach to risk management and governance arrangements in relation to UK taxation The Group’s on-going tax risk approach is based on the principle of taking reasonable care and ensuring that tax risk is identified, assessed and reported on. Tax risk is measured by reference to its impact and likelihood. Impact may consider financial and non-financial factors. The Board is ultimately responsible for oversight, tax governance and ensuring that there is appropriate framework in place in relation to tax and associated risks. As part of tax governance the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) reports up to the Board, on as required basis, in relation to tax matters. The business ensures that appropriate controls and processes are maintained and improved. In the UK, the central finance team in each subsidiary, which is led by a Finance Director, is responsible for carrying out tax compliance. The central finance team plays an important role in the management of the tax risk and control environment. The business ensures that its approach to tax is clearly communicated and understood. Tax strategy seeks to maintain the Group’s reputation as a fair contributor to the UK economy, applying tax rules in good faith and in the spirit in which they are intended.
