Top Risks When Entering the U.S. Market – and How to Avoid Them

Why the U.S. Market is Attractive Yet Complex

The United States is one of the most lucrative markets in the world, offering vast opportunity for companies looking to expand. But with opportunity comes complexity — from regulatory differences to cultural nuances and hidden operational risks.

Key Risks for Foreign Businesses

Among the top challenges are choosing the wrong local partners, underestimating compliance obligations, and entering into risky lease or supplier agreements. These pitfalls often arise from a lack of local intelligence or overreliance on surface-level information.

Due Diligence as a Risk Filter

Thorough background checks, reputation assessments, and site inspections can help prevent costly mistakes. Understanding who you're doing business with — from vendors to landlords — can shield your operations from fraud, litigation, or regulatory violations.
