Pillar Two is a global minimum tax framework introduced by the OECD, requiring large multinational groups with annual revenues exceeding €750 million to pay a minimum effective tax rate of 15% in every jurisdiction they operate in. Where a group's effective tax rate falls below that threshold in a given jurisdiction, a top-up tax applies. Compliance requires groups to aggregate entity-level financial data, calculate GloBE and QDMTT liabilities, and file returns with local tax authorities, a process that is highly complex to manage manually across multiple jurisdictions.

The ARKK Automation Platform delivers the complete Pillar Two process in four steps: aggregating data from any source system into a single governed environment, running GloBE and QDMTT calculations through a fully integrated calculation engine, filing submission-ready XML returns directly with local tax authorities via API, and providing enterprise-grade governance and a full audit trail across every stage. The platform is modular, so groups can implement the full end-to-end process or simply the final XML conversion.

The ARKK Automation Platform is designed to be operational in weeks, not months. The modular structure means implementation scope is defined by what you need, so groups that require only the XML filing component can go live faster than those implementing the full end-to-end process. Your dedicated Customer Success team provides guidance throughout onboarding and extended support around reporting deadlines.

Yes. The ARKK platform is source-agnostic, meaning it connects to data from any system, whether that is an ERP, consolidation tool, or spreadsheet-based process. Data is ingested once and reused across multiple reporting processes without limits on volume or complexity, removing the need to re-extract or reformat data for different compliance obligations.

ARKK software is ISO 27001 certified, the internationally recognised standard for information security management. The Platform includes customisable workflows, defined team roles, and built-in validations, ensuring that access controls and data integrity are maintained throughout the Pillar Two lifecycle.

Yes. ARKK is a regulator-recognised platform (including HMRC), enabling direct XML filing with local tax authorities via API. This means submission-ready returns are filed directly through the platform rather than requiring manual upload or third-party intermediaries.

Many multinational groups still manage Pillar Two compliance through spreadsheet-driven processes with scattered ownership and limited controls. As regulatory scrutiny intensifies, these approaches create material risk: calculation errors expose groups to top-up tax liabilities, inadequate documentation triggers audit findings, and individuals responsible for sign-off face personal accountability concerns. Manual processes also struggle to scale as the number of jurisdictions, entities, and reporting periods grows.
