High upside meets high scrutiny

Countries all over the world are applying greater scrutiny – and calling for stricter regulations – on transfer pricing practices.  However, this greater scrutiny can provide an opportunity to identify more cost effective arrangements for your international transactions.

At a global level, there has been a rapid introduction of new transfer pricing regulations from the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), particularly on intellectual property as part of their Base Erosion and Profit Shifting Initiative (BEPS). This will have a substantial impact on current and future transfer pricing structures for all sizes of business.
