跨国公司内部贸易的无形资产产权界定分析

本文认为,目前跨国公司内部贸易成了国际贸易一种重要形式,界定跨国公司内部转让的无形资产产权不仅是确定转让价格是否符合正常交易价格标准的关键环节,也可加强防范跨国公司通过将无形资产在跨国子公司之间内部转移,人为地操纵转移价格,损害东道国税收利益。美国以及OECD(经济合作与发展组织)就有关跨国转让无形资产产权归属问题制定了一系列相关规则。我国在制定关于跨国公司内部转让无形资产方面的法律规范时,首先要界定产权归属,在这方面可以借鉴国际有关经验特别是美国的有关规定,在主张法定所有者对受法律保护的无形资产享有控制权并获得由无形资产带来的收益的同时,对不受法律保护的无形资产则可适用开发商——协助商法则。
