KPMG survey shows uncertainty and regulation play a critical role in strategic supply chain decisions.

  • 81% of executives anticipate that the majority of their U.S.-serving supply chains will be located in the Americas once strategic shoring shifts are completed.
  • 66% of executives cite political and economic uncertainty as key reasons prompting supply chain re-evaluations.
  • 64% of business leaders consider indirect taxes, government grants/incentives, and transfer pricing rules at the outset of strategic shoring decisions.

Business executives are strategically reshaping their supply chains to achieve greater efficiencies, according to a new report—The Proximity Premium—released by KPMG LLP, the U.S. audit, tax and advisory firm. Nearly three-quarters of business executives report that strategic shoring has successfully enhanced supply resilience and operational agility.
