On February 6, 2026, the U.S. Department of the Treasury, through its Office of Investment Security, released a Request for Information (“RFI”) seeking public input on how the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS” or the “Committee”) can streamline aspects of its transaction review process. In particular, the RFI seeks comment on the creation and implementation of a “Known Investor” program (“Known Investor Program” or “Program”) by which certain investors—those that make frequent CFIUS filings—would be vetted by the Committee in advance of a formal transaction to expedite transaction clearances without weakening the rigor of CFIUS’s national security review process. Written comments on the RFI proposal are due no later than March 18, 2026.
