Compliance into the Weeds: More Compliance Challenges in the Trump Era

The award-winning Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast that takes a deep dive into a compliance-related topic, literally going into the weeds to explore a subject more fully. Are you looking for some hard-hitting insights on compliance? Look no further than Compliance into the Weeds! In this episode, Tom Fox and Matt Kelly discuss additional compliance issues raised by the current administration.

The first involves the Trump Administration investigating environmental groups receiving EPA grants. While both believe the investigations are politically motivated, they highlight the need for a robust compliance program, documentation of that program in practice, and transparency with stakeholders. The second example is the Democratic Republic of Congo’s offer to the Trump administration for mineral extraction rights, raising concerns about navigating FCPA compliance amid high corruption risks. The episode underscores the importance of robust compliance capabilities to handle unpredictable regulatory environments and emerging risks.

Key highlights:

  • Compliance Issues under the Trump Administration
  • Environmental Groups Under Investigation
  • The Democratic Republic of the Congo Deal
  • Compliance is the Answer

Everything Compliance: Episode 145, 8 Years Later: The Second Trump Administration

Welcome to this Special Edition of Everything Compliance. This podcast came into existence to chronicle what Donald Trump would mean for compliance in his first administration. Our first episode was 8 years ago after Trump won his first term. Now, 8 years later, we are back with a look at what the second Trump Administration may bring to compliance. This episode features the quintets of Matt Kelly, Jonathan Marks, Karen Woody, Jonathan Armstrong, and Karen Moore. They all look at various angles of how the incoming Trump Administration uses, abuses, or disregards compliance in the future.

  1. Jonathan Marks considers the PCAOB and NOCAR, what the second Trump Administration could do to this initiative and what it may all mean going forward. He shouts out to his son Daniel’s football game and rants about the 76ers and their absent star Joel Embiid.
  2. Karen Moore takes a deep dive into what the second Trump Administration will mean for compliance policies and procedures and tone at the top. She raves about the beauty in the world in times of ugliness.
  3. Matt Kelly takes a look at what the new Trump Administration may portend for corporate compliance and compliance professionals. He raves about the elections of Gene Vindman and David Valadao to Congress in the face of Trump opposition.
  4. Karen Woody looks at what the new Trump Administration may mean for the SEC going forward. She has her first ‘dirge’ in her shout out and rant to all those people who have been or will be attacked by Trump and his supporters
  5. Tom Fox shouts out the Indiana football team and their perfect record in 2024.
  6. Jonathan Armstrong looks at what a second Trump Administration might mean from ‘Across the Pond’.
