Course description
Until April 2019, SMEs were exempted from considering either transfer pricing issues or the diverted profits tax as they were covered by exemptions.
The arrival of the new rules on fragmented profits mean that all companies must consider the potential tax liabilities on international transactions. The latest figures on the tax gap between what HMRC expects to collect and does collect is around £35 billion. Almost half of this is accounted for by SMEs, and HMRC have them in their sights.
This live session aims to prepare you for the impact of the new profit fragmentation rules on SMEs. Jeremy Mindell will provide an overview of both transfer pricing and diverted profits tax rules, and will discuss HMRC guidance in this area. The actions that companies must take to avoid a costly HMRC investigation will be outlined, along with the consequences of falling foul of the new rules, and much more.

Introduction
Until April 2019 small and medium sized companies were exempted from considering either transfer pricing issues or the diverted profits tax as they were covered by exemptions.
The arrival of the new rules on fragmented profits from April 2019 mean that all sizes of companies need to consider whether there are potential tax liabilities on international transactions.
The latest figures on the tax gap between what HMRC expects to collect and does collect is in the order of £35 billion. About nearly half of this is accounted for by small and medium sized enterprises and HMRC have them within their sights.
It is anticipated that investigations will now commence in earnest and clients and advisors need to understand now the additional work that is required with respect to current accounting periods.
