Transfer pricing is a term used to describe all aspects of inter-company pricing arrangements between related business entities, including transfers of intellectual property; transfers of tangible goods; services and loans and other financing transactions.
Inter-company transactions across borders are growing rapidly and are becoming much more complex. Compliance with the differing requirements of multiple overlapping tax jurisdictions is a complicated and time-consuming task.
At the same time, tax authorities from each country are imposing stricter penalties, new documentation requirements, increased information exchange and increased audit/inspection activity.
If this is your situation
- You need advice on transfer pricing documentation requirements in multiple jurisdictions
- You are uncertain whether an advance pricing agreement is a better option than defensive documentation
- You need to respond to a tax authority transfer pricing audit / enquiry
- You are interested in optimally managing your worldwide transfer pricing policies and procedures
- You need to know whether your internal controls over transfer pricing are sufficient to satisfy a Section 404 end of year audit
