The Transfer Pricing challenge
Complex international tax planning structures or not, Transfer Pricing poses a major challenge for industries.
Potential direct tax risks from double taxation
Multinational enterprises (MNEs) with large customs exposure should consider and evaluate in parallel the interdependencies between TP and customs.
Both risks and opportunities can evolve depending on the approach taken by MNEs.
Challenges
Nowadays, tax authorities across countries also challenge multinational corporations by auditing their operational implementation of the Transfer Pricing system.
Audits of the day-to-day processes and financials on a granular data level are just one example. Tackling transactional data, systems and processes is one option to easily detect weaknesses or errors within the MNE group’s Transfer Pricing system.
