Structuring - GTP^® Structuring Tools

Structure - the basis of a consistent Transfer Pricing System

Our GTP^® Structuring Tools support the transfer pricing management team in modeling and implementing the transfer pricing system of the international group.
Experience from numerous projects have been shaping structuring tools such as default transfer pricing systems, definitions, content lists, workflow templates, etc. Such tools, deliverable in various digital forms, can be adapted to the specific situation of the multinational group.
The GTP^® structuring solutions in combination with transfer pricing expertise (internal or external) facilitate the speedy move of existing intercompany transactions into a modern and coherent transfer pricing management, in line with domestic and international transfer pricing provisions. Many mid-sized international groups are currently ahead of, or already within, such process of reshaping the transfer pricing system.

An important synergy effect comes with the GTP^® projects: structuring the future transfer pricing system of the multinational group generates much of that information which the transfer pricing manager anyway needs for the documentation package of past financial years. For example, as a result from structuring projects, the specific definition of the transfer pricing methods or the type of arm's length analysis may be applicable for both the future and the past (upcoming tax audit).
