FDA enforcement activities range from administrative actions like conducting establishment inspections and issuing warning letters to judicial enforcement through the Department of Justice, which can take the shape of civil or criminal actions. While we can expect the agency's core activities to continue, its priorities may shift under the incoming Trump Administration. One point of emphasis might be increasing inspections at ex-US manufacturing sites, both to help ensure the quality of products sold into the United States from abroad, and to encourage US-based manufacturing. In this episode of Connected With Latham, Washington, D.C. partners Chris Schott, Jennifer Bragg, and Bill McConagha discuss important FDA enforcement trends, including the impact of First Amendment jurisprudence on the regulation of promotional statements, increasing reliance on tools like import alerts and warning letters to address alleged misconduct, and oversight of manufacturing facilities outside of the US — all in the context of how the incoming presidential administration may shape the FDA enforcement landscape. They also examine how the recent overturning of the Chevron doctrine may impact FDA's regulatory and guidance activities.    Latham's related webcast — "FDA Life Sciences Enforcement Updates: Recent Trends and a Look Ahead" — is available on-demand here.   This podcast is provided as a service of Latham & Watkins LLP.

In 2022, the ABA updated its Standard 303, Curriculum which relates to “cross-cultural competency” and “professional identity.” Because the ABA’s Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar is responsible for law school accreditation through an appointment from the U.S. Department of Education (and the agreement of State Bars), this change and the ways it can be implemented could have widespread implications.This panel will discuss the nature of the obligations the revised Standard places on law schools and the scope of such terms as "cross-cultural competency" and "racism." Do these new standards require new courses or course changes? Will the new courses displace any of the old ones? Will the implementation turn out to be education or training? Does this standard create any tension with later developments in law including Students for Fair Admissions v. UNC (2023)? What role does the Department of Education and State Bars have in scrutinizing and altering the effects of this new standard?Featuring:Dean Michael F.

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) recently published its final rule to implement the Medicaid Services Investment and Accountability Act of 2019 (MSIAA). The final rule significantly deviates from the agency's 2023 proposal, with CMS backing off from “follow the pill” best price stacking, subjecting certain vaccines to Medicaid rebates, and creating a “shame list” of high-cost Medicaid drugs, among other proposals. But the final rule still imposes new burdens on manufacturers, such as by expanding which type of utilization triggers a Medicaid rebate, and imposing aggressive compliance deadlines in connection with misclassifications. In this episode of Connected With Latham, Washington, D.C. partner Chris Schott and associate Danny Machado break down what CMS included — and omitted — from its final rule. They also speculate about the impact the Supreme Court's overturning of the Chevron doctrine might have had on CMS' regulatory decision-making, as well as why the final rule's effective date is 60 days before the next presidential inauguration.   This podcast is provided as a service of Latham & Watkins LLP.

Recent Supreme Court decisions, such as the opinions in Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo and Relentless v. Department of Commerce that overruled the long-standing Chevron doctrine, will likely impact how federal agencies interpret ambiguous statutes when regulating the pharmaceutical industry. And in Securities & Exchange Commission v. Jarkesy, the Court established a right to a jury trial for defendants facing civil monetary penalties in agency enforcement actions, which may affect how industry stakeholders respond to enforcement actions. In addition to these cases, which are not specifically focused on the pharmaceutical industry, ongoing manufacturer challenges to the Inflation Reduction Act's negotiation provisions and to state 340B contract pharmacy laws will likely have a significant impact on the pharmaceutical industry. In this episode of Connected with Latham, Washington, D.C. partner Chris Schott and associate Danny Machado review recent and ongoing cases and explore how they could affect the pharmaceutical industry. Also tune in to the Latham webcast “The Demise of Chevron Deference and Its Impact on the Healthcare and Life Sciences Industries” for a deep dive into Loper Bright Enterprises v.

In this episode of Connected with Latham, we explore the remarkable story of Shabir Kabiri, an Afghan refugee who secured asylum in the United States with the help of a Latham pro bono team. Shabir shares his harrowing journey, his time as a cadet at West Point, and the dangers he faced upon returning home. When Kabul fell to the Taliban in 2021, Shabir experienced the chaos and fear firsthand, as his former West Point roommate and a group of West Point classmates worked to orchestrate Shabir's evacuation. New York partner Michèle Penzer and Director of Global Pro Bono Laura Atkinson-Hope discuss with Shabir the legal intricacies of his asylum case and the coordinated efforts of the Latham team to ensure his family's safety.   This podcast is provided as a service of Latham & Watkins LLP.

The US healthcare landscape is undergoing significant changes as the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) continues to implement the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). One key stakeholder group affected by the IRA drug price negotiations and Medicare Part D redesign are health insurance companies. In this episode of Connected with Latham, we delve into how these payers are responding to the IRA, including the new ability for Part D beneficiaries to spread their cost-sharing equally across the plan year. Amanda Forys from Magnolia Market Access joins Washington, D.C. partner Chris Schott and associate Danny Machado to discuss the findings of a recent survey on payer trends. Beyond discussing the broader effects of the IRA on the healthcare industry, the conversation also touches on possible Part D premium increases and how payers might be shifting new IRA obligations onto manufacturers.   This podcast is provided as a service of Latham & Watkins LLP.

The bedrock of the legal profession is a commitment to upholding the rule of law. Unfortunately, as Stanford Law researchers discover in the complex world of international sanctions, lawyers can often facilitate non-compliance and evasion.It's been two years since Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine. And yet, businesses are still skirting sanctions imposed on Russia.

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is on his way to Saipan to enter a plea deal with the U.S. government that will free him and resolve the legal case over his outlet's publication of a trove of classified documents. He's expected to plead guilty to an Espionage Act charge of conspiring to unlawfully obtain and disseminate classified national defense information, according to the U.S. Justice Department in a letter filed in court.The District of Columbia Court of Appeals has suspended Hunter Biden's license to practice law. The decision comes after Hunter Biden was convicted in his federal gun trial. According to a court filing, the Board on Professional Responsibility will issue a formal proceeding to determine subsequent steps. DC Bar rules state that law licenses should be suspended for any felony regardless of any pending appeal.With just days left in the current Supreme Court term, several blockbuster cases are still undecided. One of them is the presidential immunity case brought by former President Donald Trump. The question before the justices is whether former President Trump can be tried on criminal charges. Special Counsel Jack Smith has charged him with conspiring to overturn the results of the 2020 election. Former President Trump has argued that he has immunity because he was still the president at the time of the alleged violations.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) recently updated its portal for Average Sales Price (ASP) reporting under Medicare Part B. Data collection portals are also essential for manufacturer compliance with the Inflation Reduction Act and for price reporting under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program. The 340B program operates yet another online data portal. In addition to these federal programs, states are also implementing data collection interfaces. For example, the Texas Vendor Drug Program recently launched its electronic certification of information (eCOI) portal. Despite the significance of these portals, only a small number of users have access and can directly evaluate compliance obligations. In this episode of Connected with Latham, Washington, D.C. partner Chris Schott and associate Danny Machado discuss the details of the various data collection portals with Lynn Buhl and Sophie Sam of Riparian, a pharmaceutical consulting company that helps manufacturers navigate government pricing regulations, reporting, strategies, and program operations. Drawing on Lynn and Sophie's direct experience with the various reporting portals, the podcast explores the challenges posed by the various certification requirements, explains why CMS' update to the ASP Data Collection Module marks a good time for manufacturers to review their reasonable assumptions, and explores how implementation of the Inflation Reduction Act will further transform the price reporting landscape.   This podcast is provided as a service of Latham & Watkins LLP.

As the energy tech sector continues to mature, venture capital offers an increasingly a viable path to growth as emerging energy tech companies seek to disrupt the energy space, often following a fundraising and growth trajectory similar to software and AI. Energy tech provides opportunities for financial institutions and strategic partners to invest early in the company and also at the project level, addressing the capital-intensive needs of emerging companies through innovative funding structures. Additionally, energy tech companies and their investors face unique challenges, including heightened regulatory hurdles, permitting requirements, and environmental risks, which place additional importance on setting precedent with an initial project's finance and design. In this episode of Connected With Latham, partners Scott Craig, Josh Bledsoe, and Spencer Ricks break down how the energy tech sector has set itself apart from other emerging companies. They also discuss the latest trends in energy tech funding, the risks that entrepreneurs face in raising capital, and how emerging companies and their investors can best navigate the complexities of project development.   This podcast is provided as a service of Latham & Watkins LLP.

* Guest: James Edwards - Race, Politics & Hypocrisy in 21st Century America - thepoliticalcesspool.org * This Thursday, May 2, is the National Day of Prayer and a vital part of our American heritage. * House Democrats said they would join with the GOP to kill an effort to oust Speaker Mike Johnson if House Republicans forced a vote to remove him. * Fox pulled "The Trial of Hunter Biden" off their streaming service following legal threats from Biden's lawyers - The six-part series, which was released in October 2022, is no longer available for viewing on the Fox Nation platform - DailyCaller.com * George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley called out MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace for labeling Republicans as "conspiracy theorists", citing multiple instances where Wallace made false claims. * 'Without Evidence', Wallace claimed that Trump would remove her from the air if he were to win the 2024 election - She has been repeatedly criticized for spreading false news. * Rep. Jim Jordan sent a letter to AG Merrick Garland regarding Matthew Colangelo, a lead prosecutor in Trump's Manhattan criminal case, requesting documents and communications from Colangelo's tenure at the Biden DOJ. * Special counsel Jack Smith was hit with an ethics complaint for allegedly seeking to unlawfully interfere in the 2024 presidential election. Rep. Elise Stefanik filed the complaint with the DOJ's Office of Professional Responsibility, arguing Smith violated DOJ policy by seeking to expedite Trump's trial to "influence the general election" and violated the district court's stay on proceedings when he continued to file new material. * A new gender identity appears to have been recently added to the LGBTQ spectrum - "Genderseason" - "micro-identity" used to describe when a person feels as though their gender changes with the season. * The Biden administration released changes to Title IX, which effectively end single-sex sports in the US - If Republicans are serious about protecting children from the transgender cult, they have to put a stop to this federal encroachment before the new school year starts.

On today's show, I ask the question if it really is being polite or showing kindness to willfully lie to someone and play into their own self-delusions? How do we expect people to embrace reality if they are allowed to exist in a world of make-believe? At the start of today's excursion through the news, we start with the empty skulls on college campuses who are siding with terrorism and the culture of death. When confronted with facts, they choose to deny them in an effort to make them go away. But, how do we blame them entirely? There are plenty of adults they say who both exhibit the same self-delusions and then encourage more of it. We come to the story of Sandra Doorley, and District Attorney in Monroe County, NY. She refused to pull over after speeding. Instead of cooperating, she threw a massive adult-sized tantrum, revealing her truer nature. She believes she is above the law. But, she is not an outlier. She is emblematic of the whole of governance today. Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) actually invoked her Constitutional authority to file an official complaint against Special Counsel Jack Smith. The complaint, filed with the Department of Justice Office of Professional Responsibility, relates to his clear and illegal efforts of election interference. Onto Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) who lost her mind when a friendly reporter accidentally performed a random act of journalism. MSNBC's Katy Tur should know better than to insert truth, which derails a state approved narrative. DA Fani Willis chose to skip out on a debate for her own re-election coming up in Fulton County, GA. So, The Atlanta Press Club allowed her challenger to address the empty podium. Remember when I said the disgraced and disbanded Disinformation Governance Board wasn't going to just disappear? Looks like the singing propagandist is back! Nina Jankowicz is heading a private disinformation group called the American Sunlight Project. In week two of the Alvin Bragg “hush money” case, it seems the witness is telling us all about Michael Cohen. Of interest, we have yet to hear Donald Trump's name. On a positive, both Oklahoma and Texas have joined Florida in saying they reject the Biden regime's re-writing of Title IX. Middle school girls in West Virginia are now being represented by the WV Attorney General because they chose to forfeit, rather than compete against a boy who thinks he is a girl. And, in a moment of clarity, the NHS in the UK has decided that one's sex is a biological fact. Take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media.

This Day in Legal History: Organization of American States EstablishedOn this day, April 30, in 1948, a significant event in the realm of international law and diplomacy occurred with the establishment of the Organization of American States (OAS). This was formalized through the signing of the Charter of the Organization of American States during the Ninth International Conference of American States held in Bogotá, Colombia. The creation of the OAS marked a pivotal moment in regional cooperation, emphasizing the importance of legal and political solidarity among its member states.The Charter, serving as the foundational legal document of the OAS, laid down the principles of peace and justice, promoting the solidarity and collaboration among the member countries. The OAS was established primarily to foster mutual assistance and defend the sovereignty, territorial integrity, and independence of the states within the Americas.The organization's core objectives included strengthening peace and security, promoting the effective exercise of representative democracy, ensuring the peaceful settlement of disputes among members, and facilitating economic, social, and cultural development. Over the years, the OAS has played a crucial role in various diplomatic and political crises in the Western Hemisphere, acting as a forum for multilateral negotiations and conflict resolution.The establishment of the OAS also symbolized a collective effort to prevent foreign interference in the Americas, which was a growing concern during the post-World War II era, particularly with the onset of the Cold War. The OAS's commitment to democracy and human rights has been tested through various crises, but it continues to serve as a prominent regional entity in promoting democratic values and facilitating cooperation among its member states.Today, the OAS includes all 35 independent states of the Americas and continues to influence the legal and political landscape of the region. Its ongoing initiatives and missions focus on critical areas such as the promotion of human rights, fostering educational and cultural exchange, and addressing contemporary challenges like drug trafficking, political instability, and the protection of the environment. The establishment of the OAS remains a landmark in the history of international relations in the Western Hemisphere, reflecting a lasting commitment to regional solidarity and cooperative governance.Jeffrey Clark, a former Trump administration official and US assistant attorney general, is facing the possibility of disbarment as the only sanction deemed appropriate by DC Bar officials. In late 2020, Clark attempted to influence Justice Department superiors to send a letter to Georgia officials, improperly questioning the election results. This act was characterized by DC Bar lawyers as a dishonest attempt to create national chaos just before January 6. The situation escalated after a three-person panel preliminarily found that Clark violated at least one ethics rule, which could potentially affect his future career prospects, particularly in a potential second Trump administration.Clark's legal representatives, Harry MacDougald and Charles Burnham, have not yet responded to requests for comments on the matter. Meanwhile, Clark has claimed in court filings that the disciplinary proceedings are being used politically against Trump's allies, arguing through his lawyer that the case is politically charged.The three-person panel involved in the case sought advice from DC Disciplinary Counsel Phil Fox on possible lesser sanctions if disbarment were not pursued. However, Fox, alongside two other attorneys, argued that suggesting a sanction other than disbarment would be inconsistent with their professional duty. They emphasized that lawyers who betray their country by violating professional conduct rules should face disbarment. The final stages of the disciplinary process will involve a recommendation by the panel, followed by reviews by the Board on Professional Responsibility and the DC Court of Appeals.The ethical violation considered here is Clark's attempt to misuse his position to influence electoral outcomes, a severe breach of the Rules of Professional Conduct, which mandates adherence to lawful and ethical standards by practicing lawyers. This emphasizes the critical nature of legal integrity and the repercussions of its breach.Jeffrey Clark Disbarment Is Only Possible Sanction, DC Bar SaysA new study by global consulting firm Workiva reveals that a significant majority of companies, nearly 90%, plan to voluntarily disclose extensive data on their carbon footprint, surpassing the mandated requirements. In the U.S., 86% of surveyed companies expressed intentions to adhere, wholly or partially, to Europe's Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, despite not being obligated to do so. This directive requires companies with subsidiaries in the EU to report on their impact on local communities and fair labor practices, with enforcement potentially starting by 2026.Meanwhile, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's efforts to mandate climate impact disclosures have been delayed due to ongoing litigation, even as their proposed rules on greenhouse gas emissions reporting are perceived as less stringent.The motivation for these voluntary disclosures, as explained by Andie Wood, vice president for regulatory strategy at Workiva, stems from substantial investor demand and competitive pressures. Companies are committed to providing robust and comparable data, recognizing the strategic value in transparency.The survey involved environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practitioners from 2,204 companies globally, including 660 U.S.-based firms, all having at least 250 employees and a minimum of $250 million in annual revenue. Although these companies are confident in the accuracy of the data they volunteer, they anticipate challenges in meeting the more stringent EU reporting requirements. About 83% of respondents see accurately collecting data to comply with EU standards as a challenge, highlighting the complexity involved in fulfilling these regulatory expectations. This reflects a broader understanding among businesses that while they are confident in their current disclosures, there is room for improvement in efficiency and compliance with international standards.Most Companies Plan to Voluntarily Disclose Climate Rules DataOn Tuesday, the Biden administration announced the implementation of its second set of changes to the U.S. environmental permitting rules, aiming to accelerate the development of renewable energy infrastructure and other projects. These modifications are designed to balance the rapid construction of clean energy projects with the preservation of established environmental safeguards.The new rule introduces the concept of "categorical exclusions," which allows federal agencies to use previous decisions by other agencies for projects that are not expected to significantly impact the environment, thus bypassing more exhaustive reviews under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). It also promotes programmatic environmental reviews for broad actions, aiming to reduce the level of scrutiny for projects that either mitigate their environmental impact or provide clear environmental benefits.Additionally, the rule mandates that agencies must consider climate change impacts during environmental reviews and explore reasonable alternatives to minimize these effects. It also states that projects with long-term positive environmental outcomes may not require environmental impact statements (EIS).This rule covers a broad spectrum of construction activities, including renewable energy projects and infrastructure like roads and bridges, which are supported by recent infrastructure and climate legislation. The White House Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) has worked to expedite the permitting process, with the White House reporting a 14% increase in the federal permitting workforce and faster completion of EIS processes under this administration.The rule is expected to attract more private investment in sectors such as advanced manufacturing and clean energy. Natalie Quillian, White House Deputy Chief of Staff, and Lael Brainard, the national economic adviser, highlighted the importance of providing businesses with the certainty needed to invest confidently and navigate the federal permitting process efficiently.However, the rule has faced criticism from business groups who argue that it could favor certain projects, complicate agency analyses, increase litigation risks, and expand the scope of projects requiring NEPA review, potentially conflicting with the debt ceiling law. Despite these concerns, CEQ Chair Brenda Mallory expressed confidence in the new system's durability and effectiveness.Biden Issues Permitting Changes to Speed Clean Energy Build OutDonald Trump's criminal trial in New York, concerning charges of falsifying business records, is set to continue with testimony from a banker knowledgeable about the accounts involved in the alleged hush money scheme. This scheme was purportedly designed to influence the 2016 election by concealing a sex scandal. The trial, which marks the first criminal trial of a former U.S. president, began on April 22. Trump, who is also the Republican candidate in the 2024 presidential election, faces accusations related to a $130,000 payment made to porn star Stormy Daniels, real name Stephanie Clifford, to prevent her from discussing a claimed sexual encounter with Trump in 2006. Trump has denied the encounter and pleaded not guilty.The trial has heard from various figures, including former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker, who testified about using his publication to suppress negative stories about Trump during the 2016 campaign. Stormy Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal, who also claims to have been paid for her silence about an alleged affair with Trump, are expected to testify.Michael Cohen, Trump's former lawyer, is set to testify that he arranged and disguised the payments to Daniels and McDougal under Trump's direction, claims that Trump has denied. This case is one of several legal battles Trump is facing, with others concerning his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results and his handling of classified documents. Trump has labeled all these cases as politically motivated witch hunts.Trump NYC hush money trial to resume with banker's testimony | ReutersChangpeng Zhao, the former CEO of Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, pleaded guilty to violating U.S. money laundering laws and is awaiting sentencing. The U.S. prosecutors have recommended a sentence that is twice the 18-month maximum suggested by federal guidelines, emphasizing the need for a stern penalty to serve as a deterrent in the cryptocurrency industry. Zhao has accepted responsibility and paid a $50 million criminal fine. His defense argues for probation, noting his cooperation and lack of prior criminal history.Zhao's sentencing is part of broader legal actions against cryptocurrency executives following the industry's downturn in 2022, which revealed widespread fraud and misconduct. Binance, under Zhao's leadership, admitted to evading anti-money laundering measures and agreed to a substantial $4.32 billion criminal penalty. The exchange has been criticized for a lax approach that allegedly facilitated transactions involving criminal and terrorist groups, as well as other illegal activities. Zhao, who has stepped down from his role and is on a $175 million bond, has agreed not to appeal any sentence within the recommended guidelines.Binance's CEO Zhao faces sentencing over money laundering violations | ReutersIn my column today, I discuss the increasing reliance of states on vice industries—like marijuana and online sports betting—for tax revenue. This approach seems attractive, especially as it promises substantial inflows that help offset persistent revenue shortfalls, a situation exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic. For instance, California alone generated over $160 million from cannabis taxes in just one quarter of 2023.However, it's crucial to understand that these funds aren't "free money." They come with societal debts due to the decades of criminalization of these now-legal activities. Moreover, they bring potential future costs, such as increased health-related expenditures from addiction and mental health issues stemming from these industries.While the immediate fiscal benefits are undeniable, allowing states to bolster their budgets without divisive tax hikes, the long-term sustainability and ethical implications need careful consideration. Market saturation and the ineffectiveness of regional exclusivity are real risks as more states legalize these activities. It's no longer necessary to cross state lines for gambling, reducing the unique economic benefits previously offered by state-specific legalization.The revenue generated should not merely fill gaps caused by other tax policy failures but should specifically address the harms inflicted by these industries. Funds should be allocated to education, job training, and community development in areas most affected by past criminalization. Additionally, a portion should be earmarked for public health initiatives focusing on addiction treatment and mental health services.It is imperative that the utilization of vice tax revenues is approached not just as an economic opportunity but as a means to rectify historical injustices and promote social equity. This requires a strategic shift in policy, prioritizing long-term social benefits over short-term fiscal gains. Effective redistribution of these funds is essential to ensure that the communities historically disadvantaged by these policies see real improvements.Vice Taxation Isn't ‘Free Money' and Should Focus on Public Good Get full access to Minimum Competence - Daily Legal News Podcast at www.minimumcomp.com/subscribe

In this must-see episode of Ask a House Cleaner, professional cleaners get a stern warning - you shouldn't play chemist when it comes to mixing cleaning products. Host Angela Brown teams up with expert guest Ronnie Kendrick to debunk dangerous myths and amateur practices. They focus on the risks of combining common household cleaners like bleach and ammonia, which can create toxic fumes. Ronnie provides eye-opening insights into why cleaners absolutely must avoid these hazardous chemical cocktails at all costs, instead highlighting safer, more effective alternatives. But perhaps most crucially, Angela and Ronnie stress the immense responsibility cleaners have when working in clients' homes. Experimenting with untested chemical mixes could ruin property, void insurance, and seriously jeopardize people's health and safety. The message is clear - when it comes to chemistry on the job, responsible cleaners shouldn't be playing amateur chemists!

Following an array of ESG-focused regulation and escalating concerns of greenwashing risks in 2023, the year ahead looks to deliver significant industry developments at a rapid pace. In the UK, the FCA's Sustainability Disclosure Requirements (SDR), investment labelling regime, and anti-greenwashing rule will take effect during 2024. The FCA also plans to consult this year on incorporating standards set by the International Sustainability Standards Board into disclosure requirements for listed companies, and the FCA and the PRA are consulting on broader proposals relating to diversity and inclusion disclosures for larger authorised financial services firms. Meanwhile, firms attempting to minimise greenwashing risk must continue to navigate fluid standards and market practices. In this episode of Connected with Latham, the final episode in a 10-part series complementing Latham's “10 Key Focus Areas for UK-Regulated Financial Services Firms in 2024” report, London partners Rob Moulton and Nicola Higgs and associate Ella McGinn discuss how firms should prepare for the plethora of ESG-related regulation, as well as how firms can mitigate greenwashing risk. They also explore whether new FCA rules will align market practice and set clear regulatory expectations, and highlight some of the global regulatory developments relating to ESG.   This podcast is provided as a service of Latham & Watkins LLP.

In 2023, the FCA brought more charges for fraud offences against individuals than any other year in the regulator's history, and secured several convictions related to fraudulent investment schemes. Yet while the FCA has signaled that economic crime is on its radar, recent years have been defined by relative inactivity, as the higher burden of proof for criminal convictions has resulted in fewer opened enforcement cases and extended investigations. Still, with new leadership appointments to the market oversight team and a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the UK Serious Fraud Office, individuals will look for the coming year to reveal if the FCA has become a more assertive regulator. In this episode of Connected with Latham, the latest in a 10-part series complementing Latham's “10 Key Focus Areas for UK-Regulated Financial Services Firms in 2024” report, London partners Rob Moulton and Pamela Reddy discuss why the FCA seems poised to act more collaboratively – and assertively – on enforcement against individuals going forward. They examine the regulator's recent activity in criminal enforcement, why past investigations have been difficult to close, the potential impact of new leadership, and possible collaborations with other enforcement agencies.   This podcast is provided as a service of Latham & Watkins LLP.

The UK's announcement of the Edinburgh Reforms in 2022 made clear the government's intention to chart its own course in rulemaking for the UK financial services sector, and no longer prioritise equivalence with EU legislation. The UK is currently in the process of repealing and restating all retained EU legislation, which will result in divergence from the EU in several areas. Priority areas of reform have already seen significant progress, particularly those reflecting areas in which the government is keen to boost the UK's attractiveness as a place to do business, including the UK listing and prospectus regimes, MiFID II, the Securitisation Regulation, Solvency II, PRIIPs, and the Money Market Funds Regulation. In this episode of Connected with Latham, the latest in a 10-part series complementing Latham's “10 Key Focus Areas for UK-Regulated Financial Services Firms in 2024” report, London partners Rob Moulton and Nicola Higgs and Frankfurt partner Markus Krüger discuss the pace and focus of UK/EU regulatory divergence seen to date and what firms can expect in 2024. They also explore areas of potential regulatory convergence between the EU and the UK, including in relation to retail market investor protection, ESG reforms, and implementation of the Basel III Endgame international capital standard.   This podcast is provided as a service of Latham & Watkins LLP.

Two new Joint Executive Directors of Enforcement and Market Oversight appointed by the FCA in 2023 will settle into their roles over the year ahead. Following a period of enforcement defined by increased investigations and a willingness to push the envelope of legal interpretation, firms will look toward the coming year to resolve which areas of focus the FCA will prioritise. Recent activity suggests that the FCA aims to align its enforcement with its broader strategy, expedite the resolution of legacy cases, and improve its data and monitoring capabilities, while also addressing non-financial misconduct and maintaining a focus on retail conduct and market abuse. While the PRA has historically been less active in enforcement, PRA-authorised firms will look to see whether the regulator's new early account scheme makes a difference to the enforcement process. In this episode of Connected with Latham, the latest in a 10-part series complementing Latham's “10 Key Focus Areas for UK-Regulated Financial Services Firms in 2024” report, London partners Rob Moulton and Andrea Monks address the key issues expected to emerge on the radars of the FCA's joint heads of enforcement, and the potential impact of the PRA's changes to its enforcement process. They also discuss the regulators' data strategy and potential “quality over quantity” approach to investigations.   This podcast is provided as a service of Latham & Watkins LLP.

With the UK financial services regulators due to publish Policy Statements to their consultations on diversity and inclusion (D&I) this year, conduct and culture remain high on the regulators' agenda and connect closely to their other regulatory priorities. The regulators have proposed new D&I reporting and disclosure requirements for larger financial services firms, and the FCA is consulting on new guidance on non-financial misconduct. Although final rules are not expected until the second half of this year, firms should consider now how to meet regulatory expectations. In this episode of Connected With Latham, the latest in a 10-part series complementing Latham's “10 Key Focus Areas for UK-Regulated Financial Services Firms in 2024” report, London partners Rob Moulton and Nell Perks highlight the steps firms can take to improve their culture ahead of upcoming regulatory changes.

The coming year looks poised to act as a pivotal junction for the UK financial services regulators in deciding how to approach the regulation of artificial intelligence (AI), as the financial services industry sees the continued expansion of AI-related capabilities and use cases. To avoid stifling innovation, the UK government plans to take an “agile and iterative” approach, focusing on regulating harmful uses of AI rather than regulating AI systems as a whole. Yet this stance stands in contrast with more prescriptive approaches taken by the EU and US, requiring firms to carefully consider their use and management of AI. In this episode of Connected With Latham, the latest in a 10-part series complementing Latham's “10 Key Focus Areas for UK-Regulated Financial Services Firms in 2024” report, London partners Rob Moulton and Fiona Maclean speak about the expected regulatory developments addressing artificial intelligence. They discuss the potentially busy year ahead for financial services regulators, the risks firms should consider, and how to navigate differing international approaches to AI.    This podcast is provided as a service of Latham & Watkins LLP.

Since the announcement of the Edinburgh Reforms in 2022, the UK government has made progress on an assortment of measures spanning financial services regulation, with more developments expected in 2024. Though tabled initially as an ambitious suite of reforms, many of the proposals have not been particularly radical in reality. A recent Treasury Committee report found that completed work has had little economic impact, and that many of the workstreams are not true reforms. In this episode of Connected with Latham, the latest in a 10-part series complementing Latham's “10 Key Focus Areas for UK-Regulated Financial Services Firms in 2024” report, London partner Rob Moulton and Knowledge Management Counsel Charlotte Collins discuss anticipated developments under the Edinburgh Reforms in 2024. They also explore whether the Treasury Committee report represents a fair assessment, which changes qualify as truly ambitious, and the potential impact of the general election on further regulatory reforms.   This podcast is provided as a service of Latham & Watkins LLP.

Ruby Ridge was the site of a siege of a cabin occupied by the Weaver family in Boundary County, Idaho in August 1992. It began on August 21, when deputies of the United States Marshals Service came to arrest Randy Weaver under a bench warrant after his failure to appear on federal firearms charges. The behavior of federal agents during these events drew intense scrutiny. Weaver's lawyer Gerry Spence eventually accused the federal agencies of criminal misconduct for their actions during the engagement. At the end of Weaver's trial, the Department of Justice's Office of Professional Responsibility formed the Ruby Ridge Task Force (RRTF) in an attempt to investigate Spence's charges; their report raised questions about all of the participating agencies' conduct and policies. Joining former special forces veteran Eric Tansey is Delta Force Operator Brent Tucker from The Antihero Podcast to talk about federal agencies' history of heavy handed responses to their own citizens.
