Malaysia’s New Transfer Pricing Guidelines on Intra-Group Loans |
Are your intra-group loans ready for the IRBM’s new transfer pricing guidelines?
On 30 July 2026, the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia (IRBM) released the Malaysia Transfer Pricing Guidelines on Controlled Financial
Transactions: Intra-Group Loans. The guidance goes well beyond interest rate benchmarking. Taxpayers must now first show that a purported
loan is genuinely debt, and then support its pricing with robust credit and comparability analysis. Join Transfer Pricing Solutions for a
practical, insight driven webinar that walks through what the new guidelines require, where the audit risks lie, and what Malaysian
taxpayers and their parent groups should be doing now to review their intra-group financing. Intra-group financing is no longer a
routine interest rate exercise. With the IRBM’s stronger focus on substance, debt versus equity characterisation, creditworthiness and
documentation, both the structure and the pricing of intra-group loans must now withstand detailed scrutiny. Groups that review their
arrangements early will be best placed to minimise audit risk and maintain tax certainty.
