As we enter a new decade and the fourth year of the Trump administration, many of the questions about what to expect in the post-Obama era in regulatory enforcement have been answered and there is greater clarity about what to expect going forward.

Much of the enforcement activity over this tenure has been driven by the administration’s prioritization of national security, anti-terrorist financing, international corruption, the weaponization of foreign policy through sanctions and deterring fraud against the government. As a result, there has been stepped up enforcement in the areas of Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Sanctions and Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) and continued enforcement of the Foreign Corrupt Practices (FCPA) and the False Claims Acts (FCA). These areas will be priorities going forward and inform what we can expect of the enforcement agenda for 2020.
