16 March - ICAS Insights: The USA post-election
Event summary
With a new US President in office who promises to govern very differently from his predecessor, what changes are we likely to see to the political, legislative and regulatory landscapes?
We were joined by two policy experts to consider some of the changes that have already taken place since Joe Biden was elected. They guided us through his first 100 days, gave an overview of his key priorities and the administration personnel who will help to deliver them, outlined changes in Congress and explored the regulatory outlook and other developments of relevance.
