In this TP Talks Special Edition podcast, David Ledure (Global Financial Transactions Transfer Pricing Leader, PwC Belgium) sits down with Kristina Novak (Transfer Pricing Principal, PwC US) Michael Douglas (Transfer Pricing Director, PwC Ireland), and Jake Roche (Transfer Pricing Director, PwC Australia) to discuss tax controversy with respect to intercompany financing, focusing on recent case law. They examine the challenges posed by tax authorities when it comes to benchmarking interest rates and the factors that influence these decisions, including credit risk assumptions and implicit guarantees. The speakers delve into the approaches of tax authorities in different jurisdictions, including Ireland, the United States, and Australia, particularly how they handle debt recharacterization and the application of implicit guarantees. They also discuss strategic consideration of APAs and MAPs to potentially avoid litigation and achieve double taxation relief.Support the show
