Discussing transatlantic trade and investment in Luxembourg

She continued by strongly condemning the war in Ukraine and praised the close collaboration between the EU and the US in confronting common challenges. She went on to discuss how AmCham EU, as well as the AmChams in Europe network, supports the EU-US Trade and Technology Council (TTC) as a forum for regulatory and legislative cooperation.  

In the spirit of cooperation, AmCham EU and the US Chamber of Commerce, with the support of AmCham Luxembourg and other AmChams, produced the Transatlantic Economy Report 2022. Researched and written independently by Johns Hopkins University researchers, the report confirms what the speakers were highlighting – that the transatlantic relationship is not only resilient, but more important than ever.  

The event featured comments from speakers including Daniel S. Hamilton, Senior Fellow, Johns Hopkins University SAIS Foreign Policy Institute (FPI); Casey Mace, Chargé d’Affaires, US Embassy in Luxembourg; John Psaila, CEO, Deloitte Luxembourg; and Paul Schonenberg, Chairman and CEO, AmCham Luxembourg. The tenor of the evening was optimistic, as speakers emphasised the resilience of transatlantic trade and investment in the face of recent crises. In order to push progress forward, however, many of the speakers called on the EU to complete the Single Market, and for the US to remain a reliable, multilaterally minded partner.

Understanding the first public country-by-country reports

Tuesday, 30 June 2026 marks an important milestone in the implementation of the EU public Country-by-Country Reporting (pCbCR) Directive. For the first time, many multinational enterprises with a 30 June financial year-end will be required to publish information under the Directive.

As stakeholders and policymakers begin to analyse and interpret the newly available data, it is important that they interpret it within the context of the specific reporting rules defined by the EU Directive.

The pCbCR Directive stands apart from reporting done for tax purposes and its fragmented implementation has created significant complexities for taxpayers.

Read more about how lawmakers should approach this first round of reports and why pCbCR simplification is vital to support tax transparency and reporting efficiency.
