PODCAST: The One Big Beautiful Bill

The “One Big Beautiful Bill” represents a potential turning point for U.S. fiscal policy, balancing economic recovery with long-term sustainability. It is likely to shape key areas of the 2025 budget and face challenges in gaining bipartisan support. Its eventual impact on businesses, industries, and international relations could reshape the U.S. economic landscape.

In this podcast, will we discuss where the bill stands, the most significant areas of the bill, explore whether the provisions are short-term fixes or represent long-term solutions, look at who stands to win, who could lose, and how it all fits into the broader global trade puzzle.

It’s fair to say that this sweeping legislation carries the potential for transformative change—but not without complexity and ripple effects across industries, tax structures, and global trade for years to come. Businesses and individuals must stay agile in their tax planning to mitigate risks and capitalize on new opportunities as the bill’s provisions take shape.
