Get to the crux of TP issues in Commodity Marketing and Trading activities!
Due to the depth of trading market and the close proximity to key markets, Singapore has been the preferred
location for commodity marketing/ trading activities. Coupled with the extensive network of buyers and sellers, these activities are not
only growing in scale but are also increasing in complexity.
When such activities are carried out with their related parties, how do tax professionals ensure compliance with the arm’s length principle
and the relevant Transfer Pricing (TP) documentations? Beyond that, as TP developments continue to evolve, what are the risks and pertinent
issues that you, as well as your clients, should take note and be aware of from the perspective of a commodity marketing/trading entity?
This upcoming session facilitated by Ms Adriana Calderon, Director at Transfer Pricing Solutions Asia will take you through the do’s and
don’ts to watch out for and the practical insights in this complex TP area using various case studies. Come learn about the intricacies and
understand what is involved in the preparation of TP documentation in the aspect of commodity marketing and trading activities.

The OECD guidance emphasised that, besides interest rates, all terms and conditions of the financing transactions (including the volume of debt) should be tested against the arm’s length principle.
Are your controlled transactions in line with the transfer pricing legislation? Mistakes in pricing will roll over from year to year. It is crucial to identify mispricing as soon as possible to better manager the transfer pricing risk.
A US multinational company with subsidiaries around the world, including Singapore, recently prepared new US transfer pricing documentation.
The company applies their transfer pricing policies on a global basis. The US tax director instructs the Singapore tax director to use this
documentation. Is the US documentation acceptable in Singapore?
