Transfer pricing and international tax consulting

Thomas Herr has advised multinational businesses on transfer pricing and valuation for more than 25 years, most recently as Principal and National Leader of Transfer Pricing Services at KPMG US, where he also led innovation for the firm's Economic & Valuation Services practice. His work spans transfer pricing planning, documentation, automation, and dispute resolution, with particular depth in intangibles — licensing, IP development arrangements, and cost sharing — and global value chain restructuring.

He has served clients across consumer goods, consumer electronics, industrial markets, agricultural products, retail, software, and financial services, and has resolved transfer pricing audits with U.S. and international tax authorities. An early adopter of AI in transfer pricing, he is a named inventor on a U.S. patent for AI-driven comparable company identification. He is a CFA charterholder and holds master's degrees in economics from the University of St. Gallen and in international relations from the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies. After 25+ years in Big Four practice, he now advises clients independently — bringing the same rigor with the flexibility and direct senior attention of an independent practice.
