The OECD’s Pillar 2 proposal would impose a 15 percent minimum tax on in-scope multinational companies on a country-by-country basis, and numerous countries have enacted related legislation. On January 5, 2026, the OECD issued administrative guidance that, when enacted, would exempt U.S.-parented groups from the Pillar 2 minimum tax. Abbott continues to monitor Pillar 1 and Pillar 2 legislative developments and assess potential effects on its operations.
