Transformation

Addressing transfer pricing during a transformation project

As the world in which we operate continues to change, business restructuring can offer a way for your companies to gain competitive footing. In such business transformation, every level of the organization is involved, and the implications - operational, tax and legal - are wide in scope and impact.

Transfer pricing revisited

Companies are looking at ways to develop and implement an effective and efficient value chain that considers and brings all facets together to help achieve smoother operations, greater profitability and more sustainable growth. A new organizational setup often implies that your transfer pricing policy and calculation mechanics need to be revisited.
