For decades, the Puerto Rico Society of Certified Public Accountants (Colegio de Contadores Públicos Autorizados de Puerto Rico) has served as a cornerstone of the accounting profession on the island, fostering education, ethical standards, and professional collaboration. Throughout its history, Galíndez LLC has maintained a strong and active relationship with the Colegio, supporting its initiatives and participating in forums that advance the profession and strengthen the local tax and business community.

This year’s 37th Foro Contributivo, held at the Coca-Cola Music Hall, once again brought together tax professionals from across Puerto Rico to exchange perspectives, examine regulatory developments, and address the challenges shaping the current tax environment. Galíndez LLC was proud to be part of this important forum, continuing its long-standing support of the Colegio’s educational efforts.

As part of the program, Tax Partner Kenneth Rivera, CPA, Esq., served as a speaker, contributing his expertise to discussions focused on timely and relevant tax matters. His participation reflects the firm’s ongoing commitment to sharing knowledge and engaging in professional dialogue that benefits both the accounting profession and the broader business community.
