Freshfields strengthens TP economics department

Freshfields  have strengthened their transfer pricing economics capability, in London, with the assistance of a second doctoral-level economist, Rupert Macey-Dare, who is a member of the dispute resolution practice and regularly assists Danny Beeton, head of transfer pricing economics at the firm.

Macey-Dare's assistance will allow the practice to develop further its advice on the impact of implicit parental support on creditworthiness and related party interest rates and guarantee fees.
