Good starter level course on transfer pricing

Over the last two decades, transfer pricing rules have proliferated to the extent that there are few countries of any size that have not introduced transfer pricing legislation. It has become a key issue for in-house tax departments, tax advisers, and tax authorities. Journalists, campaigners and politicians have highlighted perceived abuses by companies. The scope for adverse PR and significant disputes with tax authorities has elevated transfer pricing to an issue of concern to most boards. Most multinational businesses need to devote some effort to compliance with transfer pricing rules and optimising where possible; for many multinationals it is one of their key areas of focus in relation to tax. This course aims to provide a basic grounding for professionals in the early stages of learning about transfer pricing. Discussion and interaction will be encouraged.

The course is not specific to any particular country; it is based on international norms. Nor is it specific to any industry; it covers transactions that arise in almost all industries.
