Financial Transactions

Transfer Pricing attention towards financial transactions has taken a flight in recent years and has further increased after the release of the OECD Guidance on this topic in February 2020. Our financial transactions team supports our clients in this field and offers all types of analyses relating to intercompany financial transactions. Since the publication of Chapter X of the OECD Guidelines, financial transactions have attracted increasing attention from tax authorities and MNEs. Your company may face challenges in setting at arm’s length prices for intercompany loans, guarantees and cash pooling structures, as well as preparing proper transfer pricing documentation. Complexity has increased, partly because of the regulatory landscape driven by the OECD, European Commission and the national tax authorities.

Quantera Global can assist your company in setting up your financial transactions policy or we can perform a baseline measurement of the current policy and analyse potential risks and opportunities. We help ensure that financial transactions are and remain at arm’s length. Our team of experts is ready to support you with your intercompany financing.

If you would like to discuss how we can be of service to you, please make an appointment for a free consultation by phone or fill in our contact form. We are looking forward to meeting you.

Financial guarantees

A financial guarantee is a guarantee provided by one entity on behalf of another entity against a third party-liability. The service QG offers is design and analysis of the financial guarantee, including the determination of the economic benefit derived from the guarantee, the effect of group membership and risk exposure of the guarantor.

Captive insurance

Captive insurance is relevant for large multinationals and refers to an entity substantially all of whose insurance business is to provide insurance policies for risks of entities of the multinational group to which it belongs. The main advantage of this structure is to reduce fees to external insurance companies and to create synergy benefits.
