Transfer pricing and its impact on the tax rate

For internationally active companies, transfer pricing for intra-group deliveries and services has a decisive impact on the tax rate.

Reliable transfer pricing models

These prices are often subject to strict review or even complete rejection by the tax authorities. We support you in developing and documenting market-based transfer pricing models and assist you in enforcing them vis-à-vis the tax authorities.
