Abstract

Recent years have seen the introduction of profit comparisons by national tax authorities to cope with multinationals' profit shifting activities. The authors argue that a country that switches from price-related transfer pricing rules to profit-related measures can reduce imports without changing firms' transfer prices. The trade effect makes the change of transfer pricing rules a potential instrument of protectionism and strategic trade policy.
