Professional perspective

A practice built around transfer pricing

With more than 23 years dedicated to transfer pricing and international tax, Terence Wilhelm advises businesses on the legal, economic and procedural dimensions of transfer pricing in France. His work covers the design and implementation of intra-group policies, economic analysis, documentation and reporting, audit defence, litigation and international procedures intended to prevent or eliminate double taxation.

His career has included roles within FIDAL Direction Internationale and EY, where he developed transfer pricing work for south-eastern France, before establishing an independent specialist practice in Lyon.

This combination of technical analysis and dispute experience informs a practical objective: to build positions that are understandable, operationally consistent and capable of being defended.

Working principles

  • Begin with the actual transaction and the applicable legal rule.
  • Connect contracts, conduct, accounts and economic evidence.
  • Explain complexity without oversimplifying it.
  • Prepare every position with implementation and defence in mind.
