BorderCrossings ... with Ernst & Young's transfer pricing and tax professionals
Operating in the BRICS countries - Episode Two: China
Transfer pricing touches nearly every area of your multinational operations, making it one of your key tax challenges and concerns. Increasingly well-staffed tax authorities are applying more sophisticated and sweeping transfer pricing tools, placing greater demands on you to document and defend your transfer pricing in more and more countries. To help you stay informed and able to adopt a more proactive stance in developing and defending your transfer pricing policies and practices, Ernst & Young is pleased to bring you this ninth installment of BorderCrossings - our monthly webcast series devoted to transfer pricing and related tax issues.
Operating in the BRICS countries - Episode Two: China
The global economic downturn has put pressure on companies to make competitive, cost-effective supply chain management decisions while striving to minimize the risk of tax controversy. Globalization means that US and Canadian companies are operating in an increasing number of international jurisdictions, including the rapidly expanding economies of the "BRICS" countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa). BorderCrossings is devoting several episodes to this critical area of interest and concern to a growing number of businesses. This second segment focuses on China and the speakers will address the following issues:
- Transfer pricing framework in China
- Summary of 2010 China anti-avoidance work and 2011 priorities
- State Administration of Taxation's (SAT) latest transfer pricing documentation requirements
- Transfer pricing audits in China - Statistics and real cases
- Advance pricing agreements
- Tax structures related to transfer pricing planning/preparation
During this live, interactive webcast, you will have the opportunity to ask questions through the website and the panelists will answer as many of your questions as time permits.
This program will be of interest to vice presidents/directors of tax/international tax/transfer pricing, directors of finance, CFOs, international tax managers and tax accountants looking for the latest practical information and planning ideas to support their global business initiatives. We hope you will be able to join us.
