Spanish term

derivarse pasivos

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Accounting Company annual accounts
European Spanish. The term is from a company's annual financial accounts. The entire paragraph reads as follows:
"La Sociedad realiza todas sus operaciones con vinculadas a valores de mercado. Adicionalmente, los precios de transferencia se encuentran adecuadamente soportados por lo que el administrador único de la Sociedad considera que no existen riesgos significativos por este aspecto de los que puedan derivarse pasivos de consideración en el futuro."

I am having trouble with the last sentence - I just don't understand the grammar of it. Does it mean "give rise to liabilities in the future" ?
