Rosa Freitas is a partner in the Portugal office of Deloitte, responsible for leading the
transfer-pricing practice within human resources consulting.
Prior to joining Deloitte in 2002, Rosa worked at Arthur Andersen, where she began
in 1988 as an assistant, was promoted to senior in 1990, to manager in 1993 and to
partner in 1999.
She is in charge of a significant portfolio of clients, both at the national and international
level. In addition to providing tax advice on a continuous basis to clients, focusing on the
tax planning aspects of their businesses and developing tax-efficient structures and
products, she has participated in numerous projects involving the restructuring of both
Portuguese and international groups.
She has relevant experience in the banking/financial services sector, both in dealing
with the tax issues of banks/financial institutions and in the tax structuring of financial
products. She has also developed expertise in individual income taxes, social security
regimes and wealth/estate tax planning issues. In 1999, she launched a new human
resources service in Portugal which covers expatriation and international assignment
services.
Since June 2006, she has accepted another challenge: heading the Portuguese transferpricing
practice.
She has attended several training courses in Portugal and abroad and has lectured at a
number of conferences on tax and human resource matters. Rosa has also written
several articles on tax and human resource matters for newspapers and other
publications.
Rosa received her law degree from the University of Lisbon Law School, in 1985.
