The struggles of intercompany agreements

Intercompany agreements are a big deal, but they’re not without their share of struggles. From time shortage to compliance risks, there’s plenty to tackle. Let’s dive into what awaits you:

Available Time

While you aim passing the task of creating intercompany agreements to the legal team, it usually lands back on your desk. The problem is: tax teams often lack the time to draft and manage these documents. As a result, they’re pushed to the bottom of the priority list—until an audit forces you to get it done.

 

meeting deadlines

If you’re playing catchup by only thinking about these agreements during an audit it’s becoming a big problem. In most countries, these agreements can not be signed retroactively.  This adds even more pressure to an already tight schedule, leaving little room for error or delay.

 

Collaboration

Drafting legal agreements is not the cup of tea of the tax team. Lacking the legal knowledge required to collaborate with legal representatives. As the legal agreements also need to be signed, this adds another layer of complexity.
