Transfer pricing: key audit risks and best practices for disputes prevention and resolution
Friday 12 September (1100 - 1200)
Description
Transfer pricing remains one of the most scrutinised areas in international taxation, often leading to prolonged disputes and double taxation risks. This panel will examine the key audit triggers and risk areas identified by tax authorities, including intangibles, intra-group services, and financial transactions. Panellists will also discuss effective strategies for dispute prevention—such as robust documentation, APAs and cooperative compliance—and tools for dispute resolution, including MAPs and arbitration mechanisms. Practical insights will be shared on how multinationals can navigate increasingly aggressive audit environments while maintaining alignment with OECD guidelines.
