Course Outline
Transfer pricing is garnering ever greater attention on the African continent. Indeed, it is one of the hottest topics in international tax, especially since revenue authorities in many jurisdictions are increasing their vigilance in this area and several jurisdictions have recently introduced new legislation. For example, South Africa’s Finance Minister, Pravin Gordhan, said during his budget speech on the 27th of February, 2013:

“Around the world, taxpayers and their governments are challenging large multinational companies that pay little or no tax in the countries in which they operate. Meeting in Moscow earlier this month, finance ministers of the G20 countries were united in supporting an overhaul of international company tax.”

It is in this context that the Institute for International Research, in association with the South African Institute of Tax Practitioners and the International Institute for Tax and Finance, is please to announce the return of Africa’s premier Transfer Pricing Summit.

The aim of the 2013 event is to bring together company tax and transfer pricing managers, corporate tax advisors, transfer pricing specialists from revenue authorities, as well as laywers and international institutions including the UN, ATAF and the OECD to discuss all the relevant issues in transfer pricing.
