Reto Gerber, Deloitte`s Head of Tax, says, “I am extremely proud of how we worked together as a team to navigate a year, that was dominated by the pandemic, to emerge stronger in this new financial year. Winning the Tax Firm of the Year and Transfer Pricing Firm of the Year awards, stands testimony to our status and eminence and is a clear acknowledgement of our success."
