  • Compile and summarize data on earning statements from large corporations including the top five Wall Street banks.
  • Answer key research questions related to the corporate income taxes. In the past, this has included research such as: changes in tax rates and structures triggered by state or federal actions; and tax credits for businesses that relocate to parts of NYC (Relocation and Employment Assistance Program).
  • Assist with ad hoc projects within the task force.
