Transfer Pricing

Advisory Services
In today's global economy, national borders have largely ceased to be relevant to the conduct of business by international firms. For the tax authorities of specific countries, however, those same borders are becoming increasingly important as they realize how transfer pricing can impact tax revenues. As a result, transfer pricing legislation and documentation requirements are becoming more stringent day by day, while the fines and penalties for noncompliance are likewise growing. This makes transfer pricing a vital issue to all international companies, requiring planning on a global level.
