Newspapers use the phrase "transfer pricing" as shorthand for multinational corporations shifting profits to tax havens to avoid tax in developed countries. ... Non-governmental organizations argue that transfer pricing deleteriously affects the budgets of developing countries that lack the administrative resources to fight with well-represented multinationals. Christian Aid estimates that developing countries lose $160 billion of tax revenue annually to transfer pricing.

Obviously you will ensure that you pay the most tax in lower tax locations but you still have to pay a certain amount in higher tax jurisdictions within the frameworks that exist. Your group transfer pricing policy can be challenged and scrutinised by any of the jurisdictions so it makes sense to have such that it will stand up to such scrutiny. so despite what newspapers might say thats the reality.

They mentioned Starbucks had paid a thimbulfull of tax on a bathtub full of income - the first tax they had paid in the UK in over ten years. All achieved by 'buying' their beans from their subsidiary in Switzerland at sky high prices. Despite being technically insolvent for over a decade, it then mentioned the company was looking to open 300 or so new outlets in the UK. Which of course is what every insolvent company does. Pull the other one, it plays Money, by the Flying Lizards.

Ministers and high-level officials from 76 countries signed, or formally expressed their intention to sign, the multilateral convention designed to reduce the opportunity for tax avoidance by multinational enterprises. Notably, the United States is not a signatory to the Convention.
