Join Duke’s international tax program in support of strategic reforms in a global investment roadshow
Washington, DC – MonbreyaFounder and Chief Tax Advisor of the Asia Consulting Group (ACG), the Philippines’ most trusted tax consulting firm, will take a short break on his international rover to participate in the Duke University Duke International Development Center (DCID) International Tax Policy (TPP) implementation plan. This is the task of strengthening the ACG to attract foreign investment and promote sustainable, investor-friendly tax reform in the Philippines following a successful joint investment mission in London with the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA).
Known for nurturing global leaders in tax policy and public finance, the TPP program brings together top decision makers, economists and tax professionals from around the world to address today’s most pressing fiscal and cross-border tax challenges through innovative, evidence-based solutions.
This international participation further strengthens Mon Abrea’s reputation as one of the most important authorities in Asia’s international tax and governance reforms. Abrea graduated from Harvard Kennedy School and Edward S. Mason, earning a Master of Public Administration degree with a focus on global governance, economic policy and leadership. He continues to advise policy makers, multinational corporations and global investors, leading high-impact programs to modernize the tax system, increase transparency and drive inclusive growth in developing economies, especially the Philippines.
In his work on supplementing international taxes, Abrea also completed advanced research from Oxford University, focusing on climate change, political and environmental justice, where he explores how fair tax and fiscal policy can accelerate climate resilience and sustainability.
Abrea is also the author of the Visionary Book series, reimagining the world, which redefines the role of tax policies in solving global crises. Part One, Reimagine the world without corruptionthe Harvard Kennedy School and the whole body of anti-corruption reforms launched, highlighting global frameworks such as BEP (basic erosion and profit transfer) and the OECD’s global minimum tax to ensure fair taxes for large multinational corporations. His latest book, Reimagine the world without climate changeIt will be launched at Oxford University, introducing bold financial instruments such as the global carbon tax to support climate action. The third and final issue, Reimagine the world without povertyto be released next year, focusing on an inclusive economic model through tax justice.

“The opportunity at Duke is not a pause, it is a strategic leap,” Aberia said. “As ACG brings the Philippines to the world stage, we remain focused on building smarter and more inclusive tax systems to attract global capital, ensure compliance and drive sustainable long-term growth.”
