The report states, “More countries use AI, including machine learning, to understand current and future compliance risks, sharpen risk management, and develop intervention actions. 82.5% of countries surveyed in the OECD’s Tax Administration 2023 report already use AI for risk assessments and detecting fraud in their tax systems or are in the implementation phase for future use.” Jurisdictions also use AI to support taxpayer compliance and reduce taxpayer burdens. However, the report acknowledges that certain risks and challenges remain in using AI to counter fraud and corruption in tax systems.
A replay also is available of a session from the 2024 OECD Global Anti-Corruption and Integrity Forum that covered some examples of national approaches to tax transparency, critical challenges in developing and implementing anti-corruption strategies, and the role of international collaboration in combating tax fraud and illicit financial flows.
