Treasury Issues Request for Information on CFIUS Known Investor Program and Streamlining the Foreign Investment Review Process

WASHINGTON – Today, the U.S. Department of the Treasury (Treasury), as chair of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), issued a Request for Information (RFI) seeking public input on the Known Investor Program and how CFIUS may streamline aspects of its foreign investment review process, while maintaining its rigorous analysis that identifies and addresses national security risk that can accompany foreign investment. Enhancements to the CFIUS process are aimed at facilitating greater investment into the United States from allies and partners and are in furtherance of President Trump’s direction in the America First Investment Policy.“The United States has a dynamic economy that attracts strong and stable foreign investment from around the world,” said Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent.
