1 Transfer Pricing Compliance Healthcheck for Tax, Legal, Compliance and Risk Functions of Multinational Corporates Practices and Procedures for Managing Intercompany Agreements Introduction Historically, tax authorities globally have placed great importance on the existence of documentation to support a multinational group s cross-border intra-group charges for goods and services. The impact of the various BEPS ( Base Erosion and Profit Shifting ) initiatives is expected to significantly increase such importance. This preliminary healthcheck questionnaire focuses on the practices and procedures relating to the Intercompany Agreements required to support a group s transfer pricing compliance. It is intended to be thought provoking, rather than an exhaustive list. LCN Legal specialises in the legal implementation of corporate structures. This includes the drafting of intercompany agreements for transfer pricing. We work alongside tax, transfer pricing, legal, compliance and company secretarial professionals within large corporates and in private practice, and we regularly publish resources for our clients and contacts. Should you wish to discuss how we can help you in this area, please contact LCN Legal by telephone on or us at info@lcnlegal.com.
