THE new Draft Handbook on Transfer Pricing Risk Assessment, produced by the Steering Committee of the OECD Global Forum on Transfer Pricing, is a detailed, practical resource that countries can follow in developing their own risk assessment approaches. This handbook supplements useful materials already available with respect to transfer pricing risk assessment. Individual country tax administrations have published information on their risk assessment practices. The OECD Forum on Tax Administration published a report entitled "Dealing Effectively with the Challenges of Transfer Pricing" in January 2012. One chapter of that report addresses transfer pricing risk assessment.

Interested parties are invited to provide comments on this Draft Handbook on Transfer Pricing Risk Assessment.
