Dig­i­tal­i­sa­tion has been mak­ing an increas­ing num­ber of pro­fes­sions more effi­cient than ever. Not only are they to be auto­mat­ed in the future, but this process is already under­way: faster, eco­nom­i­cal in terms of staff, more pre­cise…. What is going on in the tax con­sult­ing and audit­ing sec­tors? How are the many process­es at work being man­aged and direct­ed by means of Big Data, dig­i­tal sig­na­tures and AI? What pro­fes­sion­al pro­file will this sec­tor be requir­ing? Is unem­ploy­ment a threat or will a new­found free­dom allow for oth­er goals and tasks to final­ly be tack­led? What might those new aims be?

In her Duet inter­view with Chris­t­ian Klein, tax and audit­ing con­sul­tant, Dr Cal­daro­la, author of the recent book Big Data and Law, chats on recent devel­op­ments in the field of tax con­sult­ing and auditing.

Prof. Dr Doris Fis­ch­er – Pho­to: Christoph Weiss

Chi­na has been able to main­tain com­par­a­tive­ly high eco­nom­ic growth rates due to its devel­op­ment from a labour-inten­sive econ­o­my to a pri­mar­i­ly cap­i­tal­ist one and end­ing in an  econ­o­my root­ed in tech­nol­o­gy. Will data emerge as a key mech­a­nism for push­ing eco­nom­ic growth? Both Chi­na and Europe seem to have sin­gled out data as a cru­cial ele­ment in ensur­ing future eco­nom­ic growth and secur­ing geopo­lit­i­cal pow­er. Do the Euro­pean Com­mu­ni­ty and Chi­na share the same per­spec­tives and plan sim­i­lar mea­sures regard­ing data as an essen­tial ele­ment in eco­nom­ic devel­op­ment, and what are the impli­ca­tions for busi­ness, econ­o­my and inter­na­tion­al relations?

In her lat­est Duet Inter­view with Prof. Dr Doris Fis­ch­er, Chair of Chi­na Busi­ness and Eco­nom­ics at the Uni­ver­si­ty of Würzburg, Dr Cal­daro­la, author of Big Data and Law, dis­cuss­es the dif­fer­ent per­cep­tions of data as a new fac­tor of pro­duc­tion from both Euro­pean and Chi­nese perspectives.
