On behalf of the OECD participated Mr. Wolfgang Büttner, Specialist in Transfer Pricing; for the German Agency for the Cooperation, Mr. Jörg Wisner, Director of Programs; and for the CIAT, the International Cooperation Manager, Mr. Gonzalo Arias.
This activity has been of great value for the participants by virtue of the diversity of experts of the public sector as well as tax advisors and businessmen, which has allowed maintaining productive debates. It is also worth mentioning that the Economist Tania Quispe, when presenting the strategic plan of the organization, has left clear the importance of fortifying actions to increase the capacity of the Tax Administration for the control of international operations, criterion that turns out to be Latin American and worldwide trend.
During the days in which the activity was developed, diverse methodologies have been adopted consisting in the presentation of practical cases, group experiences, spaces for the discussion of common interest subjects and group activities to propose projects that could be addressed in a multilateral way. Very ambitious proposals have resulted which, it is hoped, to be shaped in the scope of the CIAT.
The subjects that have generated greater interest among the participants were:
- Structural and operative aspects to implement norms on transfer pricing,
- Recommendations and experiences to approach sectors of the economy,
- Strategies to make specific APAs and to optimize the relation Tax Administration-taxpayer.
- Treatment of the intragroup services and key aspects in the agreements of shared costs.
