Transfer prices of international companies are in the spotlight of tax authorities world-wide. Thus, it has become more and more important to maintain a consistent and defendable transfer pricing system and to comply with the increasing documentation requirements. The remarkable tax risks in this area make it necessary to have reliable processes which ensure that companies are in line with regulations and simultaneously achieve tax efficient results.
As a company with cross-border intra-group transactions you need to know where you stand in the area of transfer pricing in order to develop, implement and defend an efficient transfer pricing system.
Our experience shows the following: tax authorities world-wide are more and more focusing on transfer prices in their tax audits accomplished by tightened regulations. Therefore, compliance and risk management should be of major importance also in your company.
Here are some typical questions and situations we often experience with our clients and that are also familiar to you:
- Do you want to know exactly what are the chances and risks associated to transfer pricing in your company?
- You have to adjust your transfer pricing system, because the underlying flow of goods has changed.
- Coming restructurings or changes in your business model need to be assessed from a transfer pricing perspective.
