Abstract

This article undertakes a comparative analysis of the implementation of the Arm’s Length Principle across selected jurisdictions, examining legislative frameworks, enforcement mechanisms, and policy implications. Using doctrinal and policy-analytical approaches, the study evaluates congruence with OECD standards and draws implications for Zambia’s transfer pricing framework. The study advocates a hybrid, context-sensitive model tailored to Zambia’s institutional and developmental needs.
