WEBINAR | Transatlantic Expansion Barometer 2026

The EACC Network is pleased to invite you to an exclusive webinar presenting the 2026 EACC–OCO Global–RSM Transatlantic Expansion Barometer, with a timely look at how transatlantic investment trends are evolving amid major geopolitical and economic shifts.
Produced by the EACC in partnership with RSM France and OCO Global, the third edition of the Barometer looks at how European and U.S. mid-sized companies are navigating a more complex and unpredictable investment environment.
A few findings stand out:
• The investment flow has flipped. In H1 2026, European companies announced 680 projects in the U.S., compared with 539 U.S. projects in Europe.
• European investment in the U.S. is stabilizing. After reaching a peak in 2024, investment has returned to a more stable level, while intra-European investment has continued to decline.
• Manufacturing commitments are deepening. European manufacturing projects in the U.S. reached a four-year high, with expansions accounting for the majority of projects.
• Predictability matters. Tariff policy and regulatory complexity rank among the leading barriers to transatlantic expansion, highlighting the importance of a stable and predictable business environment.
• The customer remains a key driver. Market size and existing U.S. customers are among the strongest factors encouraging European companies to expand across the Atlantic.
These findings point to a transatlantic investment relationship that remains resilient - but increasingly shaped by strategic considerations, customer proximity, and the need for greater predictability.
Hope you can join us.

• Maxime Adam, Director - Audit & U.S. Practice, RSM
• Vincent Raufast, Head of Advisory, OCO GLOBAL
