One Big Beautiful Podcast, Part 5: Outbound Edition

Doug McHoney (PwC’s International Tax Services Global Leader) is joined by Wade Sutton, a principal who leads the international tax team in PwC’s Washington National Tax Services practice. Doug and Wade discuss OB-3’s outbound impacts and the ripple effects across the system: CAMT interactions and credit ordering; Section 174 R&E expensing elections; Section 163(j) excluding CFC items and the financing/on-lending response; FDII’s shift to FDDEI, a permanent 14% rate, and 2026 expense-apportionment relief; GILTI’s rebrand to Net CFC tested income with a 14% effective rate and ‘directly allocable’ expense questions; inventory-sourcing relief; repeal of the Section 898 one-month deferral; permanent CFC look-through; the Section 958(b)(4) fix; a new Section 951(a)(2)(B) framework; selected technical corrections; and why granular modeling matters now more than ever.
