A global view on a business-critical, fast-evolving issue.
Organisations that span international borders are increasingly facing complex regulatory and tax issues in the different jurisdictions where they operate. Transfer pricing is at the top of the tax priority list for many mid-sized and large businesses, with an outsized impact on and business units. We offer a range of solutions for transfer pricing management so you can ensure compliance with local regulations.
Our approach
There is greater scrutiny of transfer pricing the world over. Only a global, multi-layer approach can bring simplicity to this fast-evolving issue. Our global partnership in more than 100 countries provides the vital expertise in tracking developments such as new legislation and court/tribunal rulings in each jurisdiction, through direct contact with our transfer pricing experts who have deep industry know-how and the local and international expertise necessary.
Our International Transfer Pricing Community brings together specialists from across disciplines, including economists to help with value chain analysis: a vital tool to align transfer pricing with economic value creation and establish transfer prices for intangibles. Data is the foundation for a robust transfer pricing regime. Recognising this, we have created databases and tools such as a cloud-based system to ease reporting under the EU’s DAC6 directive.
Our service begins with a diagnostic risk assessment that seeks to highlight areas for savings, as well as exposure. We then work closely with you to make sure you can meet your documentation obligations and optimise your tax positions.
