Accountants are indispensable in navigating the complexities of financial reporting
regulations and standards. They are tasked with thoroughly understanding the latest developments in this domain and providing invaluable
guidance to businesses in meeting their regulatory and ethical obligations.
Effective financial reporting hinges on navigating intricate regulations. These regulations and standards mandate that businesses disclose
detailed financial information to a broad range of stakeholders, encompassing investors, regulators, and the general public. This
disclosure process is fundamental to fostering a high level of trust with stakeholders, a cornerstone for the smooth functioning and
vitality of financial markets.
The Technical Symposium 2024 will bring together experts to provide you with the latest and most important technical developments focusing
on global and local developments.

SESSION 3: Navigating Transfer Pricing Regulations in Singapore and Malaysia: Compliance and Best Practices
Adriana Calderon has extensive
international experience with Big Four and mid-tier firms advising multinational companies in the areas of corporate and international
taxation across South America, the US, Australia and the Asia Pacific Region.
As a TP practitioner, Adriana has advised companies in the Asia Pacific Region across various industries and in a wide range of projects
associated with planning, compliance and dispute resolutions with tax authorities. She has also participated in specialised projects
involving pricing of financial transactions, business restructures and negotiation of APAs. Most recently, she has participated in TP
planning projects to implement BEPS’s Action Plan and country-by-country reporting.
Adriana Calderon, Managing Partner - Asia & Malaysia at Transfer Pricing Solutions, shares insights from the IFA APAC Conference in Tokyo, highlighting key trends in transfer pricing across Asia. She explores regional differences in approach, increasing regulatory complexity, and rising audit activity, while reflecting on the importance of global networks in fostering collaboration and shaping the future of international tax.
Malaysia’s transfer pricing framework continues to evolve, with the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia applying increasing scrutiny to how multinational groups price, document and defend related‑party transactions. For businesses operating in Malaysia, transfer pricing has become a core tax risk area rather than a routine compliance exercise.
Across Asia, transfer pricing audits are becoming more frequent, more detailed and more analytically driven. Tax authorities are no longer limiting their reviews to whether documentation exists. Instead, they are interrogating whether transfer pricing outcomes genuinely align with commercial reality, operational substance and financial results over time.
