Deloitte Transfer Pricing and CbC Data Analytics

Delivering efficiency in internal processes, consistency in positions, opportunity identification and risk mitigation

In our experience, Transfer Pricing (TP) disputes continue to be one of the leading reasons for controversy between tax authorities and multinational companies. OECD's Base Erosion & Profit Shifting (BEPS) project has put an increased emphasis on transparency and consistency. These new developments coupled with inefficient monitoring and analysis of transfer prices, and deviations from internal corporate policy in implementation, may increase the possibility of double taxation, tax penalties, and/or transfer pricing audits. Deloitte leverages advanced analytics capabilities, deep transfer pricing knowledge and broad technical experience to help turn data into knowledge and actionable insights.
