About this listen

In this episode, Arne Schnitger and Christian Kaeser welcome back Pat Brown to discuss recent developments in U.S. taxation. Pat, the Co-Leader of PwC's Washington National Tax Services practice, provides insights into the history of the proposed Section 899 IRC within the draft of The One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB) in the U.S., and explains why the proposal was removed following the G7 Statement on Pillar Two. They explore the scope of the G7 Statement, which applies only to U.S. headquartered companies and excludes the application of the IIR and UTPR in these cases. The discussion emphasizes the need for meaningful simplifications to Pillar Two, noting that the QDMTT is still applicable even to U.S. headquartered companies, while non-U.S. headquartered companies must adhere to all Pillar Two rules. The response of the European Commission to the Pillar Two Directive remains to be seen. Finally, Pat highlights other aspects of the OBBB, such as amendments to the BEAT, GILTI, and FDII rules, including increased tax rates and potential benefits for taxpayers.
