The new circumstances created by COVID-19 have had an impact on transfer prices, the strict measures that are being implemented in almost every country in the world are essential to contain the advance of the virus but are pushing our economies towards unprecedented uncertainty.
Within the possible effects of this situation, we have: low in the consumers´ demand, supply chain interruptions, increase on risk aversion caused by the lack of trust by the consumer and companies, increases in extraordinary expenses, as well as price changes in products caused by exchange rate volatility.
Considering the mentioned above, local companies that are part of multinational groups may face the risks of reductions in their profitability levels, in the operating income of multinational companies and in the cash flows of subsidiaries. Of course, these situations would have a direct impact on transfer prices and how entities of the same group make transactions with each other.
