Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Presentation of Financial Statements	Presentation of Financial Statements The terms “Omnicom,” “the Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” each refer to Omnicom Group Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP or GAAP. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. Risks and Uncertainties Current global economic challenges, including the impact of the war in Ukraine, the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, high and sustained inflation, rising interest rates, and supply chain disruptions could cause economic uncertainty and volatility. The impact of these issues on our business will vary by geographic market and discipline. We monitor economic conditions closely, as well as client revenue levels and other factors. In response to reductions in revenue, we can take actions to align our cost structure with changes in client demand and manage our working capital. However, there can be no assurance as to the effectiveness of our efforts to mitigate any impact of the current and future adverse economic conditions, reductions in client revenue, changes in client creditworthiness and other developments. Impact of the War in Ukraine Historically, we conducted operations in Russia and Ukraine through local agencies in which we held a majority stake. During the first quarter of 2022, the war in Ukraine required us to suspend our business operations in Ukraine. The war resulted in the imposition of sanctions by the United States, the United Kingdom, and the European Union, that affected the cross-border operations of businesses operating in Russia. In addition, Russian regulators imposed currency restrictions and regulations. All of these actions created uncertainty regarding our ability to recover our investment in our operations in Russia, as well as our ability to exercise control over the operations. Therefore, the ability to continue operations in Russia was uncertain. As a result, we disposed of all of our businesses in Russia. Accordingly, in the first quarter of 2022, we recorded pretax charges of $113.4 million, which primarily consisted of the net investment in our Russian businesses, and included charges related to the suspension of operations in Ukraine. Lingering Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic The COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected global economic activity. Beginning in March 2020 and continuing through the first quarter of 2021, our business was impacted by reductions in client spending due to the COVID-19 pandemic. While mixed by business and geography, the spending reductions impacted all our businesses and markets. Globally, the most impacted businesses were our Experiential discipline, especially in our event marketing businesses, and our Execution & Support discipline, primarily in field marketing. Most markets began to improve in April 2021
