It is concerning that ACAMS chose to feature Marshall Billingslea in this podcast, which normalises the troubling shifts we are witnessing in the US government today, including the suspension of FCPA enforcement. The Trump administration’s approach to tariffs, corruption, and global financial policy has been and remains largely transactional rather than principled. Presenting its policies as part of a coherent strategy that upholds international order is misleading. ACAMS has a responsibility to reinforce ethical compliance standards—this choice of guest sends the opposite message.
