Overview and Learning Objectives
It is often said that transfer pricing is not an exact science, hence to develop an understanding of transfer pricing principles and methodologies, consideration of their practical application is considered paramount. This 4-day course introduces participants to transfer pricing principles and methodologies and the application of these principles and methodologies to specific categories of intra-group dealing. These sessions are complemented by practical sessions that cover the application of the principles and methodologies in practice. The focus of this practically orientated course is on the requirements of the OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises and Tax Administrations and the issues that can arise in the application of these requirements.

Prior to the course, participants will be given access to an online platform which provides them with additional pre-reading material and supplementary material (e.g. legal documentation, case law and related articles/literature). During the course, participants will be provided with a course binder containing documents relevant to the course.

The course is suitable for finance and tax personnel of multinational enterprises, tax accountants, economists and lawyers, in-house tax managers, tax and transfer pricing advisers, and government officials and tax officers.
