In this episode, Dr. Yenkey revisits some of the corruption symptoms but we start with neoliberalism and how the policies of Reagan and Thatcher shaped the globalism that blossomed in the 1990s and early 2000s.
Some topics include:
- Global trade fueled by neoliberalism
- The Corrupt Foreign Practices Act
- The Blanche memo and how the Justice Department will now address the Corrupt Foreign Practices Act
- Challenges for businesses given the administration’s new stance
- Expectations in international markets

- The World Bank and the International Monetary Fund
- China’s approach to international lending and how it has changed the global lending landscape.
