The BEPS program, initiated by the G20 countries in cooperation with the OECD member states, was created with the goal of assisting countries in preventing tax base erosion and the shifting of profits to countries with particularly low tax rates, regardless of the true nature of assessees’ activities in those countries.
The field of global transfer pricing documentation and reporting has revolutionized all aspects of reporting rules, the quality and quantity of data, as well as data transparency between the various tax authorities. This revolution is apparent in the increasing number of cases where tax authorities in different countries decide to increase retroactive collection of taxes, especially in cases where the tax rate previously paid is considered to be unfair.
