The High Court of Cassation and Justice has recently upheld a decision of the Timisoara Court of Appeal, with significant relevance for transfer pricing disputes based on the re-qualification of the functional profile of a company within a multinational group from independent producer to producer under the full control of the group. It has been confirmed that elements specific to the operation of a multinational group, such as providing support services by global cooperation structures or the existence of common directors, do not prove the existence of a transaction between the parent company and the controlled entity that would justify reconsidering the functional profile of the company, even in cases where the controlled entity experienced periods of losses.
