Isolationism has hurt America and world: Yellen to global finance leaders

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is telling world financial leaders that the US economy has grown stronger because the Biden administration rejected isolationism, offering a barely veiled criticism of former President Donald Trump's policies two weeks before the US election. Yellen was opening the IMF and World Bank annual meetings on Tuesday by highlighting US economic growth since the nation was in the grips of the COVID-19 pandemic. Without mentioning Trump by name, she said in an advance draft of her remarks that the Biden administration had ended a period of international isolationism that made America and the world worse off. We went from millions having lost their jobs to a historic labour market recovery, Yellen says. She said US economic growth has been almost twice as fast as most other advanced economies this year and last, even as inflation came down sooner. The IMF released its international outlook on the global economy on Tuesday morning and upgraded its economic outlo

US Treasury seeks more review authority over deals with foreign firms

U.S. Treasury wants to enhance the power of a little-known, secretive government committee to review deals made between U.S. firms and foreign investors. This comes as high-profile deals involving foreign investment in the U.S. like Chinese firm ByteDance's ownership of popular social media app TikTok and Japanese firm Nippon Steel's bid to purchase Pittsburgh-based U.S. Steel Corp. receive increased scrutiny by lawmakers and even President Joe Biden. A new proposed rulemaking would strengthen powers for the interagency Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States known as CFIUS which is tasked with investigating corporate deals for national security concerns and holds power to force the company to divest ownership or change major parts of the firm. The rulemaking if finalized would expand the committee's subpoena authority, allow the committee to request more information from parties to a proposed sale and expand circumstances when fines can be imposed and their size
