On February 21, 2025, President Trump issued the America First Investment Policy Memorandum, which aims to promote foreign direct investment (FDI) from U.S. allies and partners while restricting inbound and outbound investments involving "foreign adversaries," including China, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia, and the Venezuelan Maduro regime. The memorandum has significant implications for reviews by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), as well as for publicly traded companies, endowments, and pension funds.
