Programme Synopsis
The year of assessment (YA) 2019 is the first YA the transfer pricing documentation (TPD) rules, published on 22 February 2018, will apply
in Singapore. Whether you are in a consultancy advising corporate entities, a medium-sized enterprise with cross-border related party
transactions or in a regional headquarters multinational and a spoke in a global network of entities, this change would have probably
caught your attention earlier this year.
Almost a year on, do you as a tax professional know what the crux of the matter is for a shipshape watertight YA 2019? Does it even matter
to you?
What does this change really mean to the business and yourself, a tax professional? What, if any, might possible need reviewing?
Join Ms Adriana Calderon, Director at Transfer Pricing Solutions Asia, as she goes beyond the guidelines and tunnel into the TPD. Get in on what this milestone means in terms of business operations and understand the practicalities of this legislative change. Gain insights as Adriana ‘joins the dots’ and explores the implications from a regional perspective. Get TPD right, right from the start!

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.
