What happens when the world's most influential anti-bribery law is abruptly paused? Is transparency merely a compliance box-tick—or the most powerful tool we have against global threats like kleptocracy, sanctions evasion, and illicit finance? In this eye-opening episode of Corruption, Crime, and Compliance, Michael Volkov is joined by two powerhouse experts in the global fight against corruption: Scott Greytak and Josh Birenbaum (*see ‘'About Guests below). Together, they break down the sweeping implications of the U.S. government's pause on Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA)enforcement, the gutting of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), and what all of this means for business leaders, policymakers, and the international community.When the United States hit pause on FCPA enforcement, the global anti-corruption landscape shifted. Scott and Josh explore how companies are reacting, how allies are stepping up enforcement, and why transparency is emerging as a national security imperative. They offer a forward-looking conversation filled with insights for compliance professionals, risk officers, and anyone committed to ethical business in a volatile world.You'll hear them discuss:Why the U.S. government's pause on FCPA enforcement shocked the global anti-corruption community—and why companies should still stay the course with compliance regardless of political signals.How the Corporate Transparency Act, once seen as the most significant U.S. anti-money laundering law in a generation, has been quietly gutted—leaving a dangerous gap in the fight against shell companies and financial crime.What it means that U.S. companies are now incentivized to form anonymously domestically to avoid ownership disclosure—inviting kleptocrats, traffickers, and foreign adversaries to hide in plain sight.Why global businesses must prepare for a sharp rise in trade compliance enforcement, as tariffs, export controls, and sanctions take center stage in economic security—and why transparency is essential to managing these risks.How foreign enforcers, especially in Europe, are beginning to step up—but why no alliance or coalition can truly fill the vacuum left by a retreating United States.What makes transparency not just a compliance tool, but a weapon against geopolitical threats—from Xinjiang's forced labor camps to Russian shadow fleets and fentanyl trafficking.How transparency can be hardwired into foreign aid policy to protect U.S. taxpayer money, prevent narco-state development, and give American businesses a fair shot abroad.Why there's still hope—from new bipartisan support for anti-corruption measures to the emergence of a national security lens on transparency across Congress, federal agencies, and the private sector.About GuestsScott Greytak is an anticorruption attorney and the Director of Advocacy for TI US. His work focuses on designing anticorruption laws and policies, organizing and leading ideologically inclusive coalitions, and lobbying the U.S. Congress and administration. Greytak was named a Top Lobbyist in 2021, 2023, and 2024 by the National Institute for Lobbying & Ethics.

The Importance of Estate Planning: Protect Your Legacy with AIO Financial Estate planning is one of the most crucial yet often overlooked aspects of financial management. Without an updated estate plan, your assets and wealth may not be distributed according to your wishes, potentially leading to unnecessary legal complications, family disputes, and even increased taxes. At AIO Financial, we recognize the importance of proactive estate planning and are committed to making the process easier for our clients. As a fee-only financial planning firm, we offer free estate planning documents through our partnership with Estately to ensure your financial legacy is protected. Why Estate Planning Matters Many people assume that estate planning is only for the wealthy or elderly, but the reality is that everyone benefits from having a plan in place. Here are some key reasons why estate planning is essential: Control Over Your Assets – Without a will or trust, the state decides how your assets are distributed, which may not align with your intentions. Protection for Your Loved Ones – A proper estate plan ensures that your family members are taken care of, especially minor children or dependents with special needs. Avoiding Probate – Probate can be a lengthy and expensive legal process. Estate planning helps streamline asset transfer and reduce legal fees. Minimizing Taxes – Strategic planning can significantly reduce estate and inheritance taxes, preserving more wealth for your beneficiaries. Healthcare and Financial Directives – A comprehensive plan includes medical directives and financial powers of attorney, ensuring your wishes are honored in case of incapacity. Specifying Guardians and Trustees for Minors – Naming a guardian ensures your minor children are cared for by a trusted person if something happens to you. A trustee can be designated to manage financial assets for their benefit until they reach adulthood. Setting Up Correct Beneficiaries on Accounts – Ensuring that all your financial accounts, including retirement plans, life insurance policies, and bank accounts, have correctly designated beneficiaries prevents delays and complications in asset distribution. Planning for the Unexpected – If both individuals in a family pass away or become incapacitated, having a clear plan in place is essential. Does a trusted person know where your estate planning documents, passwords, property deeds, financial records, and safe deposit keys are located? Ensuring that this information is accessible to the right people is crucial for a seamless transition. Free Estate Planning Documents from AIO Financial Through our collaboration with Estately, AIO Financial provides clients with access to essential estate planning documents online. These documents ensure that your estate is managed according to your wishes and provide peace of mind for you and your loved ones. The documents available include: Wills – Specify how you want your assets to be distributed and name guardians for minor children. Revocable Living Trusts – Manage your assets while you're alive and ensure a smooth transfer upon your passing, avoiding probate. Financial Power of Attorney – Designate someone to handle financial decisions on your behalf if you become incapacitated. Advance Healthcare Directives – Outline your medical treatment preferences and appoint a trusted individual to make healthcare decisions for you. Complex Trust Solutions – For those looking to minimize estate taxes, Estately provides advanced trust options to protect and transfer wealth efficiently. Additional Estate Planning Services with Estately In addition to providing essential estate planning documents, Estately offers deed transfer services for a flat fee of $150, ensuring that real estate assets are properly titled. If you prefer a comprehensive, attorney-led process, you can opt for a full estate planning service for a flat fee of $3,500,

But, when she applied for the card she helped create, she was rejected.This inspired Vrinda to act. She quit her job at Visa to found Sequin, to recognize women's financial power and fight against the injustices that opposed it, including credit card debt and the Pink Tax.Money is power - and this proud first-generation Indian immigrant is on a mission to design a world where women have more of both. You can sign up for Sequin today completely fee-free at sequincard.com/shebelievedshecould.Memorable Moments:“The pink tax is a well-documented phenomenon where women are paying more for everyday products and services 42% of the time, which adds up to thousands of dollars a year, and hundreds of thousands a lifetime.” “As women and minorities, we are not having conversations that are necessary to be successful in the financial world. We feel at fault and alone in our unknowingness, but most hardships have stemmed from a system that is steeped in the patriarchy.” When fundraising, it's important to find mission-driven investors, recognize that you don't need to know wealthy people to recruit support, and never, ever under-sell yourself.“It is so important to have accounts in your own name. Whether that's a bank account or a credit card, it is important to set yourself up for success by knowing the steps.”Every woman is a walking billion dollar opportunity because we have been continually underserved.

When China's Belt and Road Initiative was formally launched in 2013, it was touted as a world-spanning push to replicate the economic and political impact of the Silk Road. As it made investments across the world - including in the port of Piraeus during the depths of the financial crisis - Western capitals sought to counter Beijing's growing influence. While it appears that the BRI is in retreat today, there are still risks. Josh Birenbaum, the deputy director of the Center on Economic and Financial Power at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, joins Thanos Davelis to look at the BRI today, why Europe and Washington should still be concerned about China, and what tools are available to counter Beijing - from the DFC to the proposed IMEC corridor.

The American economy is once again experiencing a concentration of financial power in a few hands, but this time around the actors are much less familiar. As John Coates shows in his new book, The Problem of 12: When a Few Financial Institutions Control Everything (https://globalreports.columbia.edu/books/the-problem-of-twelve/#:~:text=When%20a%20Few%20Financial%20Institutions%20Control%20Everything&text=A%20%E2%80%9Cproblem%20of%20twelve%E2%80%9D%20arises,and%20economy%20of%20a%20nation.), the prevalence of index funds and private equity funds in public investments has grown exponentially in recent years. Coates joins host Richard Aldous to discuss how the small number of companies managing so much of Americans' wealth poses risks both to economic stability and American democracy.

In this episode of Capital for Good we speak with Andrea Jung, the president and CEO of Grameen America, the fastest growing microfinance organization in the United States. Jung is the former chairman and CEO of Avon Products Inc, where she was the longest serving female CEO in the Fortune 500, and a stalwart champion of women's economic empowerment in the United States and across the globe. Jung has been widely recognized as one of the most influential women in business, and in forging public-private partnerships that end violence against women, support women's health, and vastly expand economic inclusion. Since 2014, under Jung's leadership, Grameen America has expanded to serve more than 179,000 women in 25 cities across the United States, with plans to continue to increase the organization's impact over the next decade. Over the course of this conversation, Jung explains how a multi-decade career at Avon, where she began in a mid-level marketing role and would serve as the first woman CEO from 1999 through 2012 (and chairman from 2001 to 2012), was inspired and shaped by the company's longstanding mission to empower women via a pathway to economic independence and equal opportunity. Jung explains that by giving Avon “ladies,” the company's direct to consumer sales force, personal earning power, it allows them to change the lives of their families and communities. Founded in 1886 — more than thirty years before women's suffrage in the United States — Avon's commitment to women's economic empowerment has been the foundational DNA of the company, linking its purpose and commercial success. As CEO, Jung was responsible for significant global growth, expanding economic earnings (approximately $3 billion) and opportunities for over six million women in more than 100 countries. Jung explains how this experience in women's economic empowerment at Avon naturally led her to Grameen America. Founded by Muhammad Yunus, the economist and Nobel Laureate who pioneered microlending in Bangladesh, Grameen America sought to extend this model to the United States. Today, Grameen America's 179,000 members, primarily Black and Latina women with 99.8 percent repayment rates on $3.5 billion in loans to date, have proven the case. Through a combination of new partnerships, technological innovations and a greater visibility of the success of its financial inclusion model — to new borrowers, policy makers, and donors and lenders — Grameen America is poised for “breakout” growth and scale.

WHAT FINANCIAL ABUSE IS AND WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT EP 109 HOST: Beverly Price, Divorce & Empowerment Coach GUEST: Rhonda Noordyk, Founder and CEO of The Women's Financial Wellness CenterSUMMARY: Financial abuse can take various forms, including restricting access to money, withholding financial information, or coercing the victim into making financial decisions. Recognizing financial abuse before and during divorce can be challenging, as it often operates covertly. However, there are warnings that can help you recognize financial abuse in your relationship and the divorce process. If you suspect financial abuse, it's crucial to seek support from a qualified professional who can help you navigate the legal system to protect your financial interests and ensure a fair settlement. In this episode of Her Empowered Divorce, your Host, Beverly Price, talks to Rhonda Noordyk, Founder and CEO of The Women's Financial Wellness Center. Together, they discuss financial abuse, what it is, how to recognize it, and what you can do about it. Divorce doesn't have to be a death sentence. With the right support and guidance, you can move through the process with knowledge, skills, and confidence. If you'd like to schedule a complimentary private consultation, reach out to Beverly at: https://beverly-price.as.me/Consultation. Visit https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/her-empowered-divorce/id1635143315 to access the entire archive of Her Empowered Divorce episodes, and while you're there, please subscribe, rate, and review our show! KEY TAKEAWAYS: Am I going to be okay? Yes, certainly! But you must define what “fine” means to you; don't just take it from your attorney or others.You can use ABUSE as an acronym to help you recognize financial abuse. A-Alienate you from finances, B-Beliefs marital money is theirs only, U-uses the legal system to control you, S-Seems like the victim, E-Evades financial accuracy and transparency. Divorce happens in three parts simultaneously: legal, financial, and emotional, and you need a core divorce team, coach, CDFA, and legal representative to help create the best results for you.Whatever stage you are in your divorce process, don't allow anyone to coerce you into making financial decisions that will sell you short. Invest in what you need to protect your financial interests and ensure a fair settlement. NOTABLE QUOTES:The first biggest challenge women face is confidence around money and finances because of a lack of knowledge and experience in managing finances; financial knowledge and confidence ultimately lead to confidence. (Rhonda) You need a core divorce team consisting of a coach, CDFA, and legal representative, and these three don't compete with each other. They complement each other and come together to create the best results for you. (Beverly) The second greatest financial challenge for women is understanding the financial aspect as it relates to the divorce process, what questions to ask, how to gather and organize information, how to access information, how to analyze it, and how to negotiate. (Rhonda) When you have a team of people working on your behalf, the process is better, and the people are better. (Rhonda) If you are thinking about divorce, don't sell yourself short on investing in what you need to ensure this process goes as smoothly as possible for you: be open to making sure you have the right team...

On this special episode of The One Way Ticket Show, Host Steven Shalowitz sat down with Dr. Jonathan Schanzer to provide perspective on the barbaric invasion of Israel by Hamas terrorists on Saturday 7 October 2023. The interview is from Steven's conversation with Dr. Schanzer on the Jewish National Fund USA podcast, IsraelCast. Dr. Jonathan Schanzer is senior vice president for research at FDD, where he oversees the work of the organization's experts and scholars. He is also on the leadership team of FDD's Center on Economic and Financial Power, a project on the use of financial and economic power as a tool of statecraft. Jonathan previously worked as a terrorism finance analyst at the U.S. Department of the Treasury, where he played an integral role in the designation of numerous terrorist financiers. He has held previous think tank research positions at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy and the Middle East Forum. Jonathan has written hundreds of articles on the Middle East, along with more than a dozen monographs and chapters for edited volumes. His new book, Gaza Conflict 2021: Hamas, Israel and Eleven Days of War (FDD Press 2021), challenges and corrects some of the wildly inaccurate news reported during the conflict. It is the first book published on the war. His three other books have made unique contributions to the field. State of Failure: Yasser Arafat, Mahmoud Abbas, and the Unmaking of the Palestinian State (Palgrave Macmillan 2013) argues the main roadblock to Palestinian statehood is the Palestinian Authority's political dysfunction and mismanagement. Hamas vs. Fatah: The Struggle for Palestine (Palgrave Macmillan 2008) is still the only book on the market that analyzes the ongoing Palestinian civil war. Al-Qaeda's Armies: Middle East Affiliate Groups and the Next Generation of Terror (Washington Institute for Near East Policy 2004) was the first to explore the al-Qaeda franchises of the Middle East. Jonathan testifies often before Congress and publishes widely in the American and international media. He has appeared on American television channels such as Fox News and CNN, and Arabic language television channels such as Al-Arabiya and Al-Jazeera. A sought-after public speaker, Jonathan has traveled widely throughout the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, UAE, Iraq, Yemen, Egypt, Morocco, Kuwait, Qatar, Turkey, Jordan, Israel, and the Palestinian territories. Jonathan has studied Middle East history in four countries. He earned his PhD from King's College London, where he wrote his dissertation on the U.S. Congress and its efforts to combat terrorism in the 20th century. He speaks Arabic and Hebrew.
