Updating Your Risk Priorities for the New Trump Administration

Are You Ready for the Next Wave of Corporate Risk? Corporate risks are shifting, and every board, C-suite, and compliance team must take a fresh look at their risk landscape. While some risks like cybersecurity, data privacy, and artificial intelligence remain high priorities, others—such as anti-corruption and antitrust enforcement—are evolving unexpectedly. With regulatory changes and new enforcement priorities emerging, businesses must stay ahead of the curve to avoid costly missteps. In this Corruption, Crime & Compliance episode, Michael Volkov unpacks the latest updates in FCPA enforcement, antitrust scrutiny, and trade compliance. With the DOJ shifting its focus, companies must prepare for the new compliance reality.

You’ll hear him discuss:

  • Why companies must reassess their risk priorities in today’s unpredictable business environment as corporate risks continue to shift in response to new regulatory and enforcement trends.
  • The impact of the FCPA enforcement pause, what it means for global businesses, and why companies cannot afford to dismantle their anti-corruption programs despite the temporary halt in enforcement.
  • How is the DOJ shifting its focus toward prosecuting criminal cartels and transnational organizations, and what does that mean for businesses operating in high-risk regions or industries?
  • The evolving landscape of antitrust enforcement, including key takeaways from Gail Slater’s confirmation hearing and how the administration’s new approach may impact high-tech competition cases.
  • Businesses should prepare for heightened tariffs, trade compliance risks, and increased customs enforcement, particularly as the U.S. targets imports from China, Southeast Asia, Mexico, and Canada.
  • Why is workplace immigration enforcement becoming a bigger concern, with the government ramping up workplace raids, audits, and compliance checks for companies employing immigrant workers?
  • There is growing scrutiny around government grants, the potential for fraud investigations, and the need for businesses receiving federal funds to ensure strict compliance with evolving regulatory requirements.
