Ms Theresa Goh & Transfer Pricing

Transfer pricing is the pricing of assets within an organisation. The term usually refers to prices on cross-border transactions within multi-national entities eg. from a foreign parent company to a subsidiary. Since the prices are controlled within an organisation, a price that appears to reflect market pricing to your company may not be when considered 'at arm's length'.

In recent years, transfer pricing has emerged as a critical success factor in corporate strategic planning and executive decision-making. More and more companies focused on growth and market leadership are recognising the important role transfer pricing can play in:

• Minimising the corporate tax burden
• Enhancing operational performance 
• Reducing legal exposure 
• Increasing cash flow 

It is an international tax issue of significant interest and impact, and now is the time to get on top of its meaning and implications. Every year, more countries are challenging companies on their transfer pricing activities and imposing onerous penalties on those in noncompliance.

In Malaysia, legislation on transfer pricing was proposed in the 2009 Finance Budget and was gazetted on 8 January 2009. Based on the said legislation, effective 1 January 2009, companies with related party transactions are required to determine and apply the arm’s length price for the acquisition or supply of property or services. Therefore, it is mandatory for all companies to prepare transfer pricing documentation for the purpose of determining the arm’s length price.                                                                      (sources from: Deloitte Malaysia)
