Apply for Bloomberg 2nd Annual Tax Insights Student Writing Competition 2022

Do you have an original take on current events and issues in tax practice and policy but you’re not yet a tax professional? Apply for the Bloomberg Tax Insights Student Writing Competition 2022. This writing competition is the perfect opportunity to show off your work: The competition is intended to highlight the very best of student writing.

Here’s how it works. Write an article addressing a timely tax policy issue. They’re looking for a thoughtful analysis, not a news or legal summary. Pick a topic, take a position, and explain why it matters in the tax world. For example, you could focus on reporting foreign assets for U.S. taxpayers, sticking points for crypto transactions, or analyzing challenges related to enforcing the OECD’s Pillars One and Two. You can choose anything as long as it’s tax focused and policy oriented.

Prizes

• They will publish the winning entry—and maybe some other standouts—this summer as one of their Bloomberg Tax Insights. And new this year, the student with the winning entry will also receive a one-year subscription to Bloomberg Tax so as not to miss any tax news and updates.

Eligibility

• You must be a part-time or full-time law student at an accredited U.S. law school or foreign equivalent, or a part-time or full-time student pursuing an undergraduate or graduate tax, accounting, or business degree.
• Co-authored or team papers are welcome.

Here’s what else you need to know:

• Entries should weigh in between 750 and 1,750 words.
• Works must be original and may not appear elsewhere.
• They don’t publish footnotes or endnotes, but you can hyperlink to sources. Be sure to credit any sources or quotes.
• You can submit charts or graphs to make your article more compelling, but you’re not required to do so.
