How to own your own international production and what that means for your business!

Introduction

As a business owner who retails products, you’ve probably had to deal with international production at some point. It might be that your company makes parts for another corporation’s products or that your company outsources its manufacturing to overseas factories. Regardless of whether you’re the manufacturer or just buying from one, it’s important to understand that you can become an overseas manufacturer for pennies on the dollar and how that opens the door to special financing like the EXIM Bank! The EXIM bank can help you when it comes to international production. The EXIM bank can help with everything from financing deals and assessing pricing terms (or arm’s length deals) all the way through customs clearance at ports and airports.

What is a supply chain?

A supply chain is the process of moving goods and services from the point of origin to the point of consumption. It’s a network of organizations that produce, distribute, and deliver goods and services. A supply chain may be made up of hundreds or even thousands of players – from producers to distributors to retailers.

A supply chain is a complex system that involves many players working together at every step along its journey. These players work with each other to fulfill demand in ways that are often automated or semi-automated; however, there are still many human elements involved in providing products and services across borders (which can be both good news and bad news).

What does it mean to own my supply chain?

With the rise of global supply chains, you may find yourself wondering what it means to own your supply chain. Owning your own international production means that you can control all aspects of the product from design to manufacturing, allowing for greater flexibility and control over quality and pricing. This can be a powerful tool for many small businesses that are looking to compete with larger brands.

What is transfer pricing?

Transfer pricing is the price of goods imported or exported between related parties. In the context of international business, it is crucial to understand how to set transfer prices in order to avoid tax penalties and financial losses. The best way to do this is to ensure that the price for goods sold between related parties are set at an arm’s length price (the same as if it were sold between unrelated parties). If your company has a subsidiary in another country, you can use transfer pricing as a way of ensuring that your business will continue operating smoothly without getting entangled in tax trouble.

You may have heard about transfer pricing from other companies who have been audited by the IRS because they did not understand how much they should charge their sister companies abroad while still paying enough taxes on them so they don’t end up owing money back at home

How do I know if my import prices qualify as an arm’s length deal?

The arm’s length principle is the benchmark for establishing transfer prices that are consistent with an independent buyer and seller dealing at arm’s length.

The OECD Guidelines on Transfer Pricing have a specific chapter dedicated to defining the term “arm’s length”. However, there is no single definition of what constitutes an arm’s-length transaction or method of establishing comparable prices. Rather, it is left up to each country to set its own guidelines on what constitutes an appropriate comparison price (known as comparability analysis). The most commonly accepted methodologies used by countries include:

  • Comparable uncontrolled price (CUP) methods;
  • Resale price method (RPM); and
  • Cost plus pricing.

How does the EXIM bank support my imports?

The EXIM Bank is a federal agency that provides financing for U.S. companies to sell goods and services abroad. The EXIM Bank can help you finance your international production through government-backed loans, loan guarantees, and insurance options.

The EXIM Bank is a government-backed bank that offers loans and other financial services to help companies expand their operations overseas. They have a number of different loan programs that can be used for international product imports, including:

  • Export Credit Guarantee Insurance (ECGI) – This program insures exporters against losses caused by political risks, natural disasters, and trade barriers such as import restrictions or embargoes. It also provides insurance when importers refuse payment after receiving their shipment. ECGI covers both the cost of shipping goods and any duties or taxes charged upon delivery in another country.
  • International Factoring Services – This service allows companies to sell invoices immediately after they’ve been received by an overseas buyer so that cash flow isn’t tied up until payments are actually made from abroad—and it can help you avoid having large sums of money sitting idle on deposit with a bank or vendor at all times!

Conclusion

This is just the start of a new way of thinking about international production. It’s time to stop outsourcing and start owning your own supply chain!

You can take control of your international production, and even turn your competition into your retailers!
