As a research hypothesis, it was assumed that micro-, small-, and medium-sized enterprise SMEs undertake Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) mainly guided by the benefits obtainable from this activity. The aim of the study was to identify the achievable and achieved benefits of undertaking CSR by SME enterprises. SMEs are not obliged to report this activity. The exploration included literature studies and empirical research, according to the expert method, in three stages: (1) selection of experts, (2) collection of information using the CAWI and CATI method, (3) development and interpretation of research results. Research has indicated that CSR is becoming closer to SMEs. The research has shown that experts are implementing CSR and gaining benefits from it. It has also shown that experts’ knowledge of CSR is insufficient, which results in many opportunities resulting from the implementation of this activity being overlooked. The European Commission (EC) guidelines introduced an obligation of reporting CSR only for listed companies; indirectly, this obligation will also affect other companies. Voluntary reporting will increase the knowledge of CSR and bring many benefits to SMEs, provided that a legal framework is created to facilitate the implementation of CSR and its reporting.

The purpose of this publication is to present European and Russian tax regulations regarding transfer pricing, transactions between related parties, intra-group settlements, low-value transactions and other aspects related to international tax law. The basic thesis is contained in the statement that the tax regulations in the world, despite the commonly accepted assumptions, differ significantly from each other, which makes it impossible for a uniform approach of entrepreneurs to the issue of transfer prices. The study was created using a critical analysis of the literature on the subject, applicable legal acts and draft legal acts, as well as the author's own experience using deductive and inductive reasoning.
