On February 1, 2025, the Trump Administration imposed long-expected tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China through the issuance of three executive orders (“EOs”).  While some recent reporting suggested that implementation of these tariffs may be delayed to March 1, 2025, the White House confirmed on January 31, 2025 that these tariffs would be implemented according to a previously-set deadline. However, following a flurry of threats of counter-tariffs and phone calls between President Trump and his counterparts in Canada and Mexico, on February 3, 2025, the leaders of Canada and Mexico confirmed that the United States will delay tariffs for a month while both countries work towards more long-term agreements.  The tariff imposed on China went into effect on February 4.

On January 10, 2025, in the waning days of the Biden Administration, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau issued a Request for Information Regarding the Collection, Use, and Monetization of Consumer Payment and Other Personal Financial Data. The Request signals the Bureau’s strong concern with the ways financial institutions, and particularly new financial tools like widespread use of mobile banking, collect and use sensitive consumer-financial data. The Request was motivated by the results from the data that the Bureau collected in developing its Personal Financial Data Rights Rule, finding that “actual business practices show significant deviation from longstanding consumer expectations when it comes to the collection, use, and monetization of data harvested from payment transactions.” Among the Bureau’s chief concerns was consumers’ general ignorance about financial data that Americans believe “is kept private just because it is sensitive.” On the contrary, the Bureau found that not only is consumers’ sensitive financial information monetized, but also that it is commingled with consumer attributes like geographic location, social-media habits, and even individual voices. Such advancements, the Bureau worries, could lead to “dynamic pricing algorithms” that show different pricing for different users, based on their harvested personal data.

As he enters his second week in office, President Donald Trump is forecasting a desire to implement a muscular trade policy leaning heavily on the imposition of tariffs—potentially on a global basis—as a means of extracting favorable trade deals and other economic and political concessions from trading partners across the globe. As of this writing, much remains uncertain with respect to tariff implementation.  What is clear is that President Trump’s tariff-related warnings have commercial and political parties around the world on edge.

Here we go again – another CTA update hot off the press. 

  • In our last update, we reported that the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) filed with the U.S. Supreme Court an emergency application to stay the injunction preventing FinCEN from enforcing the CTA, asking the Court to either stay the Texas district court’s December 3, 2024, injunction pending the Fifth Circuit’s merits review in Texas Top Cop Shop v. Garland (4:24-cv-00478-ALM), or, in the alternative, to treat the application as a “petition for a writ of certiorari before judgment presenting the question whether the district court erred in entering preliminary relief on a universal basis.” 
  • On January 7, 2025, in a separate Texas case – Smith v. United States Department of Treasury (6:24-cv-00336) –  a federal judge in the Eastern District issued a separate order enjoining enforcement of the CTA against the plaintiffs in that case and staying the Reporting Rule on a nationwide basis. At this time, the government has not appealed in that matter.
