Mykola Mishyn joins KPMG in Ukraine

Mykola Mishyn, former head of the Transfer Pricing Audit Unit of the State Fiscal Service of Ukraine (SFSU) has joined the KPMG team in Ukraine to head the Transfer Pricing Group. Mykola has more than 20 years of experience gained with the customs and tax authorities and designed the taxation regime in the area of transfer pricing. He also was part of the team that developed and improved all of the wider transfer pricing legislation and regulations. He has received an award as a Rank 1 Tax Practitioner and Tax Advisor.

“As a civil servant, active cooperation with the business community and consulting companies was an essential part of my role, and along with KPMG, we held a large number of events dedicated to the understanding of the highly complex field of transfer pricing. Transition from the civil service to the consulting area will allow me both to develop my career and share my experience gained during my work in the SFSU, with business representatives,” Mykola said.

“In my new role I will be advising clients on the prevention of transfer pricing risks, the preparation of accounts, working with the tax authorities during their inspections, and importantly, advocating the interests of clients in disputes over transfer pricing,” he added.

Sergiy Popov, Partner, Head of Tax and Legal at KPMG in Ukraine, said: “We are sure that our new Transfer Pricing and Tax Dispute Resolution Department, headed by KPMG Partner, Kostiantyn Karpushin, will be an essential asset to the business community. This area is important for any business which operates internationally, and the expansion of our team, with Mykola Mishyn as Head of Transfer Pricing Group will make critical new skills available to our clients.” He continued: “Movement of skilled personnel between the civil service and the corporate sector, and vice versa, allows the sharing of knowledge and exchange of experiences which promotes healthy relationships between the two. We are happy to welcome Mykola to our team and believe that his expertise and experience will strengthen our position as a leader in transfer pricing consulting.”
