Tax authorities worldwide are imposing new and stricter documentation requirements on companies in relation to their transfer pricing arrangements, and failure to comply can result in significant penalties. With the ever changing transfer pricing regulations, companies need an efficient framework for producing the required level of documentation to defend their transfer pricing data.
Taxpayers have historically used a country-by-country approach to the documentation of their transfer pricing, which is not in any way coordinated across territories. This frequently results in duplication of data collection efforts and transfer pricing reports that are inconsistent with the global needs of the company.
