As the global energy transition accelerates, the demand for #lithium continues to grow. Our new toolkit on lithium pricing, developed in collaboration with OECD Tax, seeks to ensure producing countries benefit from this growth, giving valuable insights to address the transfer pricing challenges in the lithium sector. This report is the third publication of our series 'Determining the Price of Minerals', which provides a framework for accurate and fair mineral pricing, helping resource-rich developing countries verify prices and optimize revenue collection. First toolkit of the series provides a framework to tackle #transferpricing challenges in mineral transactions, followed by a report focused on #bauxite. Today, we're releasing the lithium pricing framework Governments and policymakers can leverage this resource to enhance their practices and policies, ensuring lithium extraction benefits fully contribute to economic and societal goals.

[OUT NOW] OECD and IGF continue to support developing countries in addressing base erosion and profit shifting risks when pricing lithium. We have joined forces with IGFMining to support developing countries with practical guidance when addressing the transfer pricing challenges faced when pricing lithium—a critical mineral in the global energy transition. This practice note identifies the primary economic factors that can influence the pricing of lithium using transfer pricing principles (building on the transfer pricing framework in “Determining the Price of Minerals: A transfer pricing framework”). The practice note provides practical guidance for countries to accurately delineate the transaction and price lithium exports on an arm’s length basis. 🗞️📘 Read more & access the report ➡️ https://oe.cd/5Fd #BEPSinMining #OECD #IGF #mining #lithium #transferpricing #BEPS #tax4dev #OECDtax

These building blocks can be adopted incrementally by interested jurisdictions, starting with maximising exchanges of readily available information and progressively moving towards more practical solutions, including the automatic exchange of information underpinned by common due diligence and reporting requirements. These practical solutions would also ensure access to beneficial owner information when real estate is held through legal entities or arrangements.   📘➡️ https://oe.cd/5E3   #OECDtax #OECD #tax #taxtransparency #realestate #G20 #G20Brazil Philip Kerfs Paul Hondius
