The Internet provides a global market place for many businesses that previously, without large capital investment, would have been restricted to local or national operations.

Trading online offers a wealth of opportunities, however it also increases the regulatory burden and adds a layer of complexity to operations that will increase the financial risk.

An example of this is recent anti avoidance legislation for the supply of telecommunications, broadcasting and electronically supplied services, requiring companies to establish the commercial status of customers and actual place of supply of service in order to apply the correct sales tax treatment.
