Workshop Objective
Do you engage in transactions with related parties, i.e. companies within your Group, be it sister companies, associated companies or subsidiaries?
If so, you will need to be aware of the recent changes in the transfer pricing regulations in Singapore as well as across the region.
Transfer pricing refers to the pricing of goods/services/assets and/or funds when they are transferred within a Group.
In association with TAKX Solutions, the Introduction to Transfer Pricing workshop is designed to arm participants with an understanding of transfer pricing as well as transfer pricing compliance in various Asia Pacific countries.
In addition, a discussion of the various transfer pricing methods and their application, as well as the transfer pricing regime in
Singapore will be presented.

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.
