ITR European Tax Awards winners Yves Hervé and Philip de Homont of NERA Economic Consulting talk about the evolving European TP landscape and the COVID-19 impact on client work in a podcast.





In this awards special edition of Tax Insights podcasts, ITR’s Commercial Editor Prin Shasiharan is joined by NERA Economic Consulting’s Managing Director Yves Hervé and Director Philip de Homont. 

NERA Economic Consulting was recognised as Germany’s National Transfer Pricing Firm of the Year at the ITR European Tax Awards in May 2020.

The partners discuss the key elements that gives the firm a competitive edge, outlining the strength of its transfer pricing arsenal through practical examples of tackling court litigation and helping companies embrace digital transformation.

The partners also explain how working with clients during the COVID-19 pandemic has changed, the firm's long-term commitment to profit splits, and offer their thoughts on what increasing international guidelines and TP changes mean for companies operating across Germany and the European Union.
