Navigating transfer pricing controversies: Strategies for resilience
-
The complexities of controversies in transfer pricing — whether they concern intangibles, service charges, or overall business models — are rooted deeply within intricate economic scenarios. Organizations with complex transfer pricing frameworks are increasingly vulnerable to rigorous audits by tax authorities, external auditors, and regulatory bodies. Such audits, besides being resource-heavy, also impose significant financial and time burdens.
This session will delve into the complexity of tax scrutiny and transfer pricing disputes, which are increasingly dominating the landscape. Throughout this session, varied approaches by tax authorities will be explored, and effective measures businesses can employ to support themselves against such audits will be discussed.
