New Challenges from Old Laws: What UK Companies Who Do Business in the US Need to Know About Recent Developments in CFIUS and FARA

Public Policy and Regulation Attorneys Charles Borden and Seth Stodder will be speaking at the Confederation of British Industry (CBI) program on May 21. In recent news, the Department of Justice (DOJ) has announced its plans to investigate the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) administration and decide if their efforts should be strengthened in its investigative and enforcement abilities. The panel will discuss the recent Committee on Foreign Investments in the United States (CFIUS) and FARA developments, guidance for British companies to consider the FARA and CFIUS issues, and opportunities for legislative and regulatory engagement on FARA in Congress and the Trump administration.
