This webcast provides an in-depth examination of the treatment and valuation of acquired intangible assets within a transfer pricing framework, with a focus on both technical rigour and practical application. Participants will explore how acquired intangibles are identified and valued at acquisition, and how those valuations are maintained over time, including the impact of impairment considerations and ongoing regulatory requirements.
Among many other key takeaways, the session also addresses enforcement trends in transfer pricing for intangibles, highlighting areas of heightened scrutiny by tax authorities. From common audit risk factors to staying clued up on evolving documentation expectations and the growing emphasis on economic substance in evaluating intercompany arrangements, learn how robust valuation methodologies and well-supported assumptions are critical to sustaining defensible positions under examination.
By the end of the webcast, you should be able to design, document, and defend globally compliant intercompany valuation strategies with even greater confidence.
