Compliance risk is the potential for an organization to face legal penalties, fines, or damage to its reputation due to violations of laws, regulations, or internal policies. This risk arises from the ever-evolving landscape of regulatory requirements and the complexity of operating in multiple jurisdictions, particularly in areas such as transfer pricing where cross-border transactions can lead to disputes with tax authorities. Understanding compliance risk is essential for businesses to effectively manage their financial reporting obligations and avoid costly consequences.
