Erb will also focus on helping tax professionals translate their own experiences and expertise by expanding the breadth and depth of Bloomberg Tax Insights.  These popular articles, written by tax practitioners, offering expert analysis on current issues in tax practice and policy, including recent tax trends and topics like cannabis and crypto, the impact of IRS regulations, and tax and accounting firm practice and management.

“Bloomberg Tax is known for its great tax coverage,” said Erb in a statement. “But we want our reader and customer experience to go beyond reading our great content.”
