U.S. Tariffs and De-risking: What Nordic Companies Need to Know with Nordic AmChams

Join Amcham Finland and our fellow Nordic AmChams on August 20, from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM for a strategic post-summer check-in on the evolving U.S. trade and tax landscape—and what it means for Nordic companies, in partnership with Ernst & Young.

Recent shifts in U.S. policy are creating new challenges and uncertainties for international businesses. From sector-specific tariff impacts to potential penalties for companies from OECD-aligned countries, Nordic firms need practical guidance to navigate this complex environment. Speakers for the event include:

• Lynlee Brown, Partner – Indirect Tax – Global Trade
• Ana Maria Romero, Partner – U.S. Transfer Pricing
• Aruna Kalynam, Partner/Principal — Global Tax Policy Leader, Americas Tax Policy Leader

Based in the U.S., each speaker brings deep expertise in global trade law and tax policy. They will offer insights into the practical and regulatory implications of recent shifts in U.S. policy, including how Nordic firms can assess risk and adapt to mounting uncertainty.

During this session, we’ll examine the state of play of the “America First” tariffs first introduced in April and their sector-specific impacts, as well as §899 of the U.S. House budget bill and its potential to penalize companies from OECD-aligned countries and the implications for investor confidence and access to U.S. capital markets. We’ll also explore de-risking strategies reshaping trade, tax planning, and supply chain structures, along with practical guidance for Nordic companies navigating heightened geopolitical and economic uncertainty.*

Don’t miss this essential session where we examine the latest developments in U.S. trade and tax policy and explore actionable strategies for Nordic businesses operating in an increasingly complex regulatory environment.
