Holding companies and corporate groups

Whilst multinational companies are faced with an array of individual tax rules, the most innovative solutions can only be applied in a global approach. Improving a corporate group's effective tax rate involves cross-border issues such as: what is the optimal tax structure for the group? How should inter-company transfer prices be structured and documented? Which options provides the most attractive Austrian taxation for the group as a whole or the ability to exploit tax concessions using group structures?
