FACC-NY organized a virtual briefing on U.S. market entry and tax considerations for Nordic companies, led by cross-border advisors Ann-Christine Westerlund and Victor Westerlund of Westmusa Inc.
Drawing on decades of advisory experience, the speakers shared practical insights into common market entry barriers, frequent pitfalls, and a structured “dos and don’ts” framework for Nordic companies establishing a presence in the United States. The discussion emphasized real-world scenarios and planning considerations based on client case experience.
The session included a practical overview of how the U.S. tax system operates, with particular attention to state-level economic nexus and related compliance questions. Participants also received an update on recent developments connected to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA).
The program concluded with an active Q&A discussion, where participants raised detailed and thoughtful questions related to structuring, tax exposure, and cross-border operations.
We thank Ann-Christine Westerlund and Victor Westerlund for sharing their expertise and guiding a focused and practical discussion for our member community.
