As the administration and Congress outline their fiscal agenda for 2026, the U.S. policy landscape is evolving with surprising speed and in unpredictable ways. The administration’s agenda around regulatory changes, global affairs, and legislation create challenges, but also opportunities, for businesses navigating the policy waters.
In this WCDirect session, John P. Gimigliano, Principal-in-Charge of Federal Legislative & Regulatory Services within KPMG’s Washington National Tax practice, will provide an insider, director-level briefing that draws on all facets of his expertise—from legislative strategy to federal rulemaking analysis. Synthesizing emerging policy signals,
ongoing tax debates in Congress, and potential regulatory actions at Treasury and the IRS, John will map out the most significant tax and regulatory shifts boards should expect in 2026 and how the looming midterms could influence that.
Combining the forward-looking insight of a “Legislative Radar” briefing with the strategic oversight lens of “Policy Pulse,” this session will highlight potential pathways for corporate, international, and business tax measures, and explain how these developments may shape boardroom conversations around capital deployment, M&A
outlook, supply-chain strategy, and risk governance. Designed for public and private company directors, the session offers strategic clarity in a period of accelerated policy transition.
