Trump Organization Plans an Ethics Policy Without Banning Foreign Deals

^{Published on 2024-12-05 08:30:37 - Brian Stokes, N@N}

The family business of President-elect Donald J. Trump is expected to announce some restrictions on transactions but is not likely to accept as many limitations as it did eight years ago.

The Trump Organization is developing a new ethics policy that notably does not include a ban on foreign deals, despite previous controversies involving foreign payments during Donald Trump's presidency. This policy aims to address potential conflicts of interest as Trump seeks the presidency again in 2024. The policy will include measures like appointing an ethics officer and implementing a gift ban, but it explicitly allows for continued business dealings abroad. Critics argue that this approach fails to prevent the kind of foreign influence that was a significant issue during Trump's term, while supporters of the policy claim it provides sufficient transparency and oversight. The policy's development comes amidst ongoing legal battles and public scrutiny over the Trump Organization's business practices.
