The opening days of the Donald Trump administration have sent companies accelerating to understand the mysterious provisions in historical laws, support their legal defenses and find ways to form a radically changing political scene.
Trump's early moves showed that he is planning to use a broader tool group expected to implement his agenda, so that he maintains commercial partners in guessing how and when he will threaten him with punitive tariffs.
At an amazing weekend with more than 100 executive requests and procedures after Trump's inauguration, American companies advisers say the window is open to influencing politics – but only for those who are able to keep pace with this.
“The scope of the policy results may be as high as it was at all,” said Chris Kruger, a strategic expert at the Washington Research Group in Washington. “The right and the right tails are huge, and all roads lead to Trump.”
From promoting fossil fuel and expanding the scope of customs tariffs to the deportation of uncomfortable immigrants and the challenges that challenged diversity initiatives “wake up”, Trump's agenda was well deported, but some details are still immune.
He promised to cancel a penetration a The minimum global taxes For example, through the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, it was mediated with a threat to double American taxes on expatriates and companies from countries that continue to follow this, according to an unprecedented section of the Written Tax Law before World War II.
“On the one hand, a muscle response was received with a wide praise” of American multinational companies, which has long complained of the deal. “But one of the questions we received immediately is:” My CEO is a citizen of a foreign country that coincides with living and working here. Do I need to go to tell the CEO about his tax rate that may double? “
Trump Advisors promised to “flood the area” with executive work, partly to keep opponents on the back foot. Consultations, law firms, and investment banks have built detailed plans to monitor requests and isolate the prominent points of customers.
“When there is a wealth of information, there is often a poverty of attention,” said Kevin Madden, a republican strategic expert in the Girl's Consulting Group, who created a “war room” to follow up on the statements. “The challenge facing corporate leaders is to give priority to all this information and activity.”
This was not more clear than it was in the energy sector, after Trump called for emergency powers to survey the organizational obstacles in front of fossil fuel projects and canceled many executive measures of his predecessor.
The clean energy industry was also shocked by a demonstration of how the executive branch apparently undermined the financing imposed by Congress. One The positions offered to developers and manufacturers Under the Law of Inflation and the Law of Bethopia of both parties. The way to open the money is not clear now and may intertwine in broader negotiations in the Congress to review the Irish Republican army.
William Osbelinger, CEO of the American aluminum producer Alocoa, said that local Sarams of his company may be in risk if tax credits are reduced.
He said that the support “allowed these facilities to continue working in the current environment,” adding that the company will determine its long -term ability when it was clear what any changes in the Irish Republican army mean, and if there are additional effects of customs tariffs.
The wind energy took a special heavy blow as a result of orders that frozen approvals that caused an immediate review of permits practices, which cover current projects.
Some companies are racing to appoint pressure companies associated with Republicans who hope they will be the permission of the administration. Federal disciplines showed renewable energy developers, Nuketera and Nixitira rented government relations last month.
Trump's energy orders are similar to a five -point road map proposed by the American Petroleum Institute, the fossil fuel lobby group. Mike Somers, API CEO, said the institute is now moving to influence the implementation of politics.
He said: “Many of these executive orders direct agencies to do things, but many of these agencies do not yet have honest people.” “What we are trying to do is fill the voids for the heads of the new section, so that they know exactly how to implement the president's vision.”
While Trump did not fulfill a promise to impose a new tariff on American trading partners on the “first day”, an executive note ordered administrative reviews of current commercial practices, with a deadline on April 1. Mexico, Canada and China with customs tariffs on February 1.
“While nothing with President Trump is final until it is implemented. I cannot confirm the extent of presentation of this memo, which indicates the seriousness of the procedure Structural changes on our commercial policies somewhat.
In some circles, the executive measures were crystallized from the anxiety that the new definitions, as well as the potential deportation of a part of the American workforce, can provoke inflation and reduce the Federal Reserve Chamber to reduce interest rates.
Carroll Station, the KPMG Consultant Consultant in the United States, suspected that anxiety was behind this week in calls received from private -stock -owned companies about the start of a sale.
She said, “Many sit on the starting line ready to set out the gun.” “The discussion now is whether there is a short window for the three months to the next six, as interest rates will be at its current level and we need to deal before that window.”
The executive procedures appear to be likely to accelerate the reformulation of companies from diversity, shares and integration programs. Trump has ordered government agencies to put lists of “most discriminatory and discriminatory practitioners in each concern” and suggest “up to nine possible investigations to civil compliance” for public companies and other institutions.
“They are American employers to completely retract legal efforts,” said Jenny Yang, a former commissioner of the Equal Opportunities Committee, who is now a high consulting partner.
Yang said that many companies studied their DEI policies to verify that they were closed, but the law firms were sending urgent bulletins to customers who provide legal audits. The goal of the retail seller on Friday has become the latest company Previous obligations dei.
Krueger of TD Cowen said that the executive procedures for this week were “standard and wide”, with a lot of digestion and many questions that were not answered. “But at least now the season has ended,” he said. “Now you can start placing the pen in paper on politics.”
