ARLINGTON, Virginia and CHICAGO, Aug. 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Bloomberg BNA and Baker & McKenzie today announced that the 2nd Annual Global Transfer Pricing Conference: Asia will take place on 19-20 September in Hong Kong. The conference provides multinational companies operating in Asia an opportunity to hear from government and OECD officials, tax experts and practitioners from the private sector who will share essential insights into the rapidly-evolving transfer pricing landscape. The event will take place at the JW Marriott Hong Kong and registration is available at http://on.bna.com/gtx1302VthN.
At the conference, experts will discuss the multitude of regional and global challenges faced by China, India and other countries in the Asia-Pacific region. These include the most pressing and relevant transfer pricing issues, such as country-by-country reporting details and the recently issued transfer pricing documentation guidance under Bulletin No. 42. Other timely subjects to be addressed — which remain works in progress by the OECD — include profit splitting, attribution of profits to permanent establishment and hard-to-value intangibles.
"With countries around the world racing to adopt the OECD's BEPS recommendations, multinational companies in Asia face more transfer pricing compliance obligations than ever before," noted Brendan Kelly, Partner with Baker & McKenzie. "Like other Bloomberg BNA and Baker & McKenzie conferences held in Paris, Washington, DC, and Toronto, this conference is a 'must-attend' event for first-hand perspectives on these obligations, from policymakers, tax advisers and corporate peers alike."
"China's recent guidance requiring more transparency from companies could increase the risk for some multinational groups," said Molly Moses, Bloomberg BNA's Transfer Pricing Report Editor. "Those doing business in mainland China through principals in tax-favorable jurisdictions such as Singapore and Hong Kong must now report the effective tax rates of their overseas-related parties. Sessions at the Hong Kong conference will give companies the necessary tools to defend their structures under the new regime."
Sessions topics include:

The conference is being conducted in association with the Tax Management Educational Institute.
