SUMMARY:Quarterly EU Economic Update: Forged in Crisis – How the War in Ukraine May Strengthen the European Union & the Transatlantic Relationship
DESCRIPTION:EACC New-York – \nThe Russian invasion of Ukraine has unleashed a humanitarian crisis and a major macro-economic shock that fundamentally changes the global economic outlook. The EU is directly exposed to spillovers from the conflict\, but the impact will be more pronounced for countries on its eastern border. Surging commodity prices\, disrupted supply chains\, and unprecedented trade and financial sanctions will all weigh on growth and push inflation higher in the near-term. \nWith that said\, key economic indicators show that the European economic expansion overall should remain strong enough to weather these war-related disruptions and continue its recovery. The outlook is clouded by significant uncertainties regarding the outcome of the war in Ukraine\, the impacts of economic sanctions on Russia\, and possible responses from Russia and other major geopolitical actors. It is clear that the war presents many challenges for the EU\, especially over the medium-term\, and it drives home the need to accelerate the energy transition. Securing clean\, reliable sources of energy are now not simply an environmental priority\, but a matter of geopolitical security for Europe. \nIt is often said that Europe will be forged in crises but with challenges come opportunity. The continent is responding with solidarity\, strengthening and deepening the European Union while providing aid to Ukraine. Forceful policy actions are reinforcing a broad-based economic recovery by supporting business and household incomes\, encouraging investment\, and promoting the green and digital transitions. \nJoin us for an in-depth discussion of the challenges and opportunities facing the European economy. Our panel will begin with an update on the European Commission’s newly released Spring 2022 Economic Forecast\, the first to factor in the war in Ukraine and associated sanctions on Russia. \nRegister here \nWe will then discuss the major challenges and opportunities facing Europe\, covering a variety of possible scenarios and key questions facing policy makers:\n● What is the inflation outlook and how should policy makers respond?\n● How should the EU adjust its fiscal stance to deal with the impact of the war?\n● What policy tools are available to ease the uneven impact of the war and refugee inflow on different EU member states?\n● How are businesses likely to adapt their supply chains?\n● What are the main EU policy developments in the energy sector?\n● What does the war mean for the broader global economic and financial architecture that has been in place since World War Two? \n  \nSPEAKERS:\n● Balazs Parkanyi\, Counsellor for Economic and Financial Affairs\, EU DELEGATION TO THE UNITED STATES\n● Ben Carliner\, Senior Economist\, EU DELEGATION TO THE UNITED STATES\n● Yvonne Bendinger-Rothschild\, Executive Director\, EACCNY [Moderator] \nTIME:\n1:00 – 2:00 PM EDT | 19:00h – 20:00h CET \nREGISTRATION FEE:\nEACCNY Members: Free\nEACCNY non-Members: Free

SUMMARY:Quarterly EU Economic Update: Springtime in Europe - What the EU's Green Transition Means for US Businesses
DESCRIPTION:Though Omicron weighed on the European economy at the end of last year\, growth is already regaining traction. Supply chain bottlenecks and high energy prices are expected to recede over the course of the year\, though inflationary pressures are proving to be a bit more persistent than previously thought. Nonetheless\, the EU recovery should now be entering a prolonged and robust expansion. A continuously improving labor market\, a large stock of accumulated savings\, and especially the full deployment of the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) should power strong domestic demand. \nThe investment outlook is as strong as it has ever been. Not only are businesses poised to invest more in critical equipment to boost productive capacity and resolve supply chain issues\, the RRF is set to launch a wave of spending on new green and digital technologies. \nMost member states have already received their first round of RRF pre-financing\, and over €46 billion in grants and nearly €20 billion in loans have been distributed so far. Now\, disbursements for countries that have already fulfilled specific targets and milestones in their Recovery and Resilience Plans are being rolled out. Spain received a €10 billion grant at the end of last year\, and many more member states should receive additional disbursements soon. \nPlease join our discussion of the EU Spring economic outlook and to learn about the implementation of the Recovery and Resilience Plans and how you can get involved. \n\n\nSPEAKERS: \n\n Balazs Parkanyi\, Counsellor for Economic and Financial Affairs\, EU DELEGATION TO THE UNITED STATES \nBen Carliner\, Senior Economist\, EU DELEGATION TO THE UNITED STATES \nYvonne Bendinger-Rothschild\, Executive Director\, EACCNY [Moderator]

SUMMARY:Quarterly EU Economic Update: EU Autumn 2021 Economic Forecast
DESCRIPTION:The European American Chamber of Commerce – New York is hosting a webinar to discuss the European economic forecast for upcoming months.\nGet the latest on the European economy with an in-depth look at the European Commission’s newly released autumn 2021 Economic Forecast. This comprehensive forecast takes into account all the recent economic data and public policy developments through mid-October and weighs the prospects for European and global growth against a range of potential risks. \n  \nSPEAKERS:\n• Balazs Parkanyi\, Counsellor for Economic and Financial Affairs\, EU DELEGATION TO THE UNITED STATES\n● Ben Carliner\, Senior Economist\, EU DELEGATION TO THE UNITED STATES\n● Yvonne Bendinger-Rothschild\, Executive Director\, EACCNY [Moderator] \n  \nThere is a lot of momentum behind the recovery and we should see some solid growth numbers for the EU economies over the remainder of the year and into 2022. High vaccination rates and cautious public health policies are now paying growth dividends across the EU. With that said\, the pace of the recovery is moderating as supply shortages and logistical bottlenecks weigh on output. Inventories are very low and many manufacturers simply can’t get the supplies they need. On the labor market side\, it has been challenging to fill open positions due to skills mismatches. \nIn other words\, short-term demand policy seems to have worked well both in Europe and the US. Savings rates are high and investment is growing. But Covid-related supply constraints are holding back growth and look set to last longer than expected. Policy makers on both sides of the Atlantic now need to focus on the medium- to long-term. In this vein\, the EU’s Recovery and Resilience Facility [RRF] will finance a lot of new investment in green and digital technologies that will boost growth and productivity further while ‘future-proofing’ the economic structure by linking RRF funds to structural reform. RRF roll-out has already started and policy makers as well as the private sector are optimistic\, especially about the speed of the green and digital transitions. \nThe EU Commission still expects supply shortages to be temporary\, but in the meantime\, they are feeding into higher headline inflation\, and there is uncertainty over how to effectively address these bottlenecks in the short term. Rising energy prices are also causing a headache for policy makers in Europe\, where many countries depend on imported gas. This raises important strategic questions\, including whether green investments will smooth out or aggravate tensions in the energy market. \n  \nTIME:\nNoon – 1:00pm CST / 1:00pm-2:00pm EST \n  \nRegister Here\n  \nThis event is hosted by:

SUMMARY:Responsible Capitalism – The ESG Integration Balancing Act
DESCRIPTION:The European American Chamber of Commerce – New York is hosting a webinar about how companies are balancing the bottom-line with environmentally and socially responsible governance.\nKey discussion topics to include: \n  \nIntegration of ESG into business strategy and compliance programs \n• ESG is not “new” particularly in the business and legal spheres. But how companies address ESG is becoming less prescriptive and requires more tailoring of the risks and opportunities respective of their business strategy and embedded into their culture of compliance in order to ensure a sustainable approach. \nUnderstanding and applying ESG standards and regulations \n• The universe of ESG standards is wide and often confusing while country-specific regulations are rolling out at a quick clip. We discuss approaches for understanding which ESG standards may be most relevant to your business and current and emerging regulations to address now. We will also discuss ratings and how to align with standards reporting. \nDeveloping ESG metrics and goals for now and for a sustainable future \n• Prevailing market sentiment has been and still continues to focus on using metrics for measuring ESG performance\, primarily for climate and carbon goals. However\, without properly tying metrics back to strategic initiatives and understanding the explicit financial impact\, the measures can prove to be meaningless for sustainability and building a more resilient organization. We will further explore operational opportunities for implementing ESG initiatives in procurement\, supply chain\, and as part of asset management. \nESG Pitfalls: Understanding disclosure\, green-washing\, and dispute risks \n• What regulations require non-financial and financial disclosures and where? \n• What is green-washing and how can companies mitigate the risk? \n• How to know about risks and avoid litigation pertaining to ESG disclosures and operations \n  \nSPEAKERS:\n• Anna Athanasopoulou\, Head of Unit Proximity\, Social Economy\, Creative Industries\, DG Internal Market\, Industry\, Entrepreneurship and SMEs\, EUROPEAN COMMISSION\n• Brooke Hopkins\, Managing Director\, ALIXPARTNERS LLP (Moderator)\n• Maureen Kline\, VP Public Affairs & Sustainability\, PIRELLI TIRE NORTH AMERICA\n• Fabio Massimo Natalucci\, Deputy Director\, INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND\n• Annette Michelle (Shelli) Willis\, Partner\, TROUTMAN PEPPER\, LLP \n  \nTIME:\n9:00am – 10:00am CST / 10:00am-11:00am EST \n  \nRegister Here\n  \nThis event is hosted by:

SUMMARY:Expanding Operations into New Territories: Has the Recipe for Success Changed in a Post-Covid World? - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Expanding operations into new territories around the world has traditionally offered important commercial opportunities for both for multinational corporations and SMEs. Whereas the trend toward globalization was well underway\, the COVID-19 pandemic marked an abrupt halt\, leading to a global recession\, a severe disruption of global trade and a sharp decrease in foreign direct investments. \nSome countries are still managing the crisis. Others are slowly emerging from it with governments mostly focusing on supporting their domestic economies. Companies around the world however are looking at what commercial opportunities are available to them in other territories and considering how the sanitary crisis and its consequences is impacting plans to expand. \nLooking at Europe and the United States\, with a focus on financial transactions\, accounting\, taxation and human resources\, the panel will discuss the push towards more responsible governance\, how the tendency toward international alignment and cooperation between jurisdictions is being challenged by an increase in local\, sometimes idiosyncratic\, administrative and regulatory complexities and why these trends provide both challenges and opportunities for businesses considering expanding operations to other territories. \nTOPICS FOR DISCUSSION \nTrends toward more responsible Governance. When planning to expand\, companies need to consider the following: \n\nA shift away from traditional offshoring impacting the choice of new locations;\nIncreased protection of employees as businesses are encouraged to be responsible employers;\nAn increase in mandated use of third parties;\nCompliance requirements as part of market entry strategy with stricter penalties for non-compliance being implemented especially in more complex jurisdictions;\nPersonal consequences for non-compliance on directors.\n\nTrends in international vs. local regulatory and administrative complexity. Issues include:\n \n\nMeeting global obligations with the trend toward standardization via regulations such as CRS\, UBO and FATCA;\nManaging international reporting requirements vs. local ones such as the OECD’s Common Reporting Standard (CRS);\nNavigating the complexities of local/regional jurisdictions opening up to international business while simultaneously enacting rules potentially impacting investments such as the European Commission’s Proposal for Regulating Foreign Subsidies Control;\nUnderstanding the domination of local legislation in some business areas such as accounting and incorporations;\nManaging the international and local complexities of assembling a workforce.\n\nSPEAKERS \n\nJuan Botin\, Project Director – Grupo Santander (Madrid)\nJan Willem van Drimmelen\, Chief Commercial Officer & Head of North America – TMF Group (Amsterdam)\nEdoardo Gambaro\, Partner – Greenberg Traurig (Milano)\nTyler Lavin\, VP\, Development and Investment – North America at citizenM hotels (New York)\nMike Morroni\, Head of Global Client Directors and North America Head of Business Development – TMF Group (Miami) [Moderator]\n\nSPEAKER BIOGRAPHIES\n \nJuan Botín \nJuan´s whole career has been linked to the International sphere.

SUMMARY:Is the End in Sight? Yes\, it is!  17 Years of the Airbus-Boeing Dispute
DESCRIPTION:In October 2004 the U.S. hauled Airbus in front of the World Trade Organization\, calling European loans to Airbus illegal subsidies. Since then\, there have been counter-complaints and negotiations and appeals. Meanwhile\, a global pandemic has walloped the aerospace industry\, and China is making a serious run at getting into the civilian airliner market. \nIn March 2021 the new U.S. Administration reached agreements with the UK and the EU to “pause” tariffs in the dispute for an initial period of four months to give negotiators time to see if a settlement can be reached. Three months into the pause\, what progress has been made (if any)? Is there a settlement to be had\, and if so\, what might it look like? And if not\, what would a return to tariffs mean for the aerospace industry specifically and for transatlantic (and global) trade in general? \nOur expert panelists – from both sides of the Atlantic — will review the state of play offer perspectives on the way forward.  Our attorneys will review the history of the dispute and summarize the specific complaints as well as update us on the status of the talks\, while our manufacturers will review how the issue has impacted their firms in the past as well as consider how a resolution (or non-resolution) might affect future operational and investment decisions. \nFree event for EACC members and non-members. \nREGISTER HERE \nFeatured Panelists: \n\nJan de Beer\nOffice Member-in-Charge | Lexington\, KY\nFrost Brown Todd LLC \n\nPhilippe Garnier\nCEO & General Manager\nSafran Landing Systems \n\nAndrew Tetley\nPartner\nReed Smith LLP

SUMMARY:Quarterly EU Economic Update The Post-Pandemic Recovery: Ready for the ‘Roaring Twenties’?

SUMMARY:The EU’s Industrial Strategy and how U.S. Investors can get Involved
DESCRIPTION:Europe is embarking on a transition towards climate neutrality and digital leadership. The European industrial strategy to be launched in the Spring of 2021 aims to ensure that European industry can lead the way as we enter this new age. The initiative is backed up by EU COVID Recovery Fund\, which will invest €750 billion in rebuilding the European economy.\nThe strategy consists of three drivers will transform our industry\, support our small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and keep Europe sustainable and competitive. \nThey are:\n●  Green transition\, supported by the European Green Deal\n●  Digital transition\, supported by the EU’s digital strategy\n●  Competitiveness on the global stage\, where Europe will leverage the influence of its single market to set global standards \nWith this unique initiative Europe is addressing the twin transition into a green and digital future\, the updated industrial strategy will include reflections on strategic dependencies of the European economy. A process similar to supply chain review started under the Biden Administration. This discussion will outline the multitude of issues that merit a transatlantic discussion and outline specific areas ripe for a closer cooperation. \nThe strategy also aims to unleash the potential of SMEs\, which are essential to Europe’s competitiveness and prosperity. SME’s will be supported by:\n●  encouraging innovation through new funding and digital innovation hubs as part of the sustainable and digital transitions\n●  cutting red tape by reducing barriers within the Single Market and opening up access to finance\n●  allowing better access to finance by setting up an SME Initial Public Offering Fund (with investments channeled through a new private-public fund) and the ESCALAR initiative (a mechanism to boost the size of venture capital funds and attract more private investment) \nOn all three fronts there will be opportunities for US and European investors to get involved. \nSPEAKERS:\n● Kerstin Jorna\, Director-General of the Directorate-General for Internal Market\, Industry\, Entrepreneurship and SMEs\n● Duncan Caird\, Managing Director\, Head Infrastructure\, Energy & Export Finance\, HSBC\n● Thomas Barrett\, Chairman\, OECD INFRASTRUCTURE FORUM\, and Senior Fellow Global Economy Development Program\, BROOKINGS INSTITUTION\n● Additional Panelist TBA \nTIME:\n10:00am EDT / 16:00 CET \nREGISTRATION FEE:\nEACCNY Members: Free\nEACCNY non-Members: Free \nREGISTER
