Under management agreements, all earnings of KPMG N.V. are distributed to the partners, through Coöperatie KPMG U.A., who pay tax on these earnings. The Group has a ruling for corporate income tax purposes, under which total net income before tax is subject to corporate income tax at the level of Coöperatie KPMG U.A., KPMG N.V. and the practice companies of the individual equity partners respectively. For this reason, income tax payable by the Group itself is limited.
Tax on the profit share of KPMG N.V. is calculated using the average tax rate applicable for the year. For 2022/2023, the average tax rate was 25.4% (2021/2022: 25.0%).

The key factors that determine the valuation of deferred tax assets are the probability of future taxable profits, the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, and the assumption that it is expected that the carrying amount can be recovered. No amount was recognized in profit or loss related to changes in enacted or substantially enacted tax rates (2021/2022: an increase of EUR 89).
