CFIUS: Thinking Creatively About National Security
This podcast examines the expanding role of CFIUS in safeguarding U.S. national security against foreign investment risks. It traces the committee’s evolution from a little-known review body into a central instrument of economic warfare following FIRRMA, COVID-era reforms, and rising tensions with China. Through case studies involving energy infrastructure, agriculture, real estate, and digital platforms, the episode highlights how national security now manifests through data access, geographic proximity, and control of critical industries. The discussion concludes by assessing the strategic benefits and trade-offs of CFIUS’s secrecy, enforcement power, and growing influence in global competition.
