  • Michelle Tavares on Why Compliance Teams Need EB-5 on Their Radar
    2026/09/14
    In this episode, Tom Fox welcomes Michelle Tavares, a former federal government forensic accountant and former USCIS EB-5 compliance officer who helped rewrite the EB-5 statute into the Reform and Integrity Act (RIA). Tavares explains EB-5 as an investor visa program where foreign nationals invest $1,000,000 (or $800,000 in a TEA) in U.S. projects that must create jobs, and she describes how EB-5 transactions sit at the intersection of immigration, securities, banking/AML, and corporate governance, making consistent documentation and a unified “story” critical for adjudication. She outlines the roles of regional centers, NCEs, and JCEs; the challenges of proving a lawful source of funds; and the importance of third-party oversight, KYC/AML controls, and tone-from-the-top governance. She discusses how RIA added compliance expectations, penalties, and increased scrutiny of regional centers and overseas promoters, and shares why she founded Standard & Proof Investigations to close knowledge gaps in EB-5 compliance.

  • 9/11 Twenty-Five Years Later: Part 6: John Lee Dumas - “I Knew I Was Going to War”
    2026/09/11
    Ed. Note-Five years ago, I looked back on 9/11 in a 20 year retrospective. This week is the 25th anniversary of that event. I am rerunning this award winning podcast series so that we never forget. On the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attack, Tom Fox and guests look back on the tragic event and what it meant for them personally, as well as how it impacted the world of compliance. Today Tom’s guest is John Lee Dumas. John is the host of the award-winning podcast Entrepreneurs on Fire, joins Tom Fox on the last installment of Looking Back at 9/11 to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attack. He tells Tom how his life changed in that pivotal moment, and the big lessons he learned. A Time of War John tells Tom that he was in his final year at Providence College, and in the ROTC cadets, on 9/11. When he saw the towers fall, he knew at once that it would change the trajectory of his career. He and his roommate looked at each other and they knew “that our next four years of active duty army experience went from being in the peacetime army to looking like we were going to war.” Within hours they were called to active duty: “We just became officers in the US army during a time of war,” John recalls. Leadership Lessons from the Army Tom asks John what leadership lessons he learned from his time in the army. John outlines three major takeaways that his time in combat taught him: To learn from those who went before. “I learned right at the beginning, I needed to stand upon the shoulders of giants,” he remarks. A good decision now is better than a great decision later. Action is everything. Make the best decision you can with the information you have, take action, then adjust if you need to when you know more. If you discover later on that you made a wrong decision, cut your losses and move on. Don’t compound that mistake by staying in a bad place, John advises. “I kept being willing to pull back and say let's try again, until I finally made a great decision. It took six years to make my first great decision, but that great decision has led to the last 10 years of living the exact life that I want to live.” What Americans Should Remember John wants Americans to appreciate their freedom, because it was hard won. He tells listeners, “So few people have ever experienced what true lawlessness is. And until you’ve experienced that, it's hard to really appreciate what we do have here. But you know, this is a great country and it is the home of the free because of the brave. And I hope that's just something that we will always remember.” Resources John Lee Dumas: ⁠Entrepreneurs on Fire⁠ | ⁠Twitter Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • 9/11 Twenty-Five Years Later: Part 5: Scott Moritz – It Changed Overnight
    2026/09/10
    Ed. Note: Five years ago, Tom Fox looked back on 9/11 in a 20-year retrospective. This week is the 25th anniversary of that event. We will be rerunning this award-winning podcast so we never forget. On the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attack, Tom Fox and guests look back on the tragic event and what it meant for them personally, as well as how it impacted the world of compliance. Today, Tom’s guest is Scott Moritz for this episode of Looking Back at 9/11, where Scott talks about how the events of 9/11 impacted the FBI. ⁠How 9/11 Changed The FBI: Structural and Cultural Ambidexterity 9/11 fundamentally changed the FBI overnight. Scott remarks that for a long time after 9/11, the FBI was primarily focused on the attack on the Trade Center. That was the Bureau’s main investigation, and all FBI field offices and virtually every foreign attaché office in the world worked on it. Many scholars, through various organizational studies and surveys, assumed that the FBI would have created simultaneous frontline structures and processes to balance its two competing missions: national security and law enforcement. The scholars also posited that the FBI might engage in cultural ambidexterity by refusing to take on the national security mission altogether. The FBI did something altogether unexpected and tackled both. The Benefit of One Agency “There was this rapid emergence of two clear, but distinct, identities, and eventually, you know, one new unified identity: the FBI, but some changes were that terrorism cases were centralized at headquarters…This was a big departure from the way that the FBI normally operated,” Scott tells Tom. By staying a single agency, the FBI had better access to local law enforcement and could better leverage defendants for information that could advance the national security mission. A Shift in the Private Sector Tom asks Scott to talk about any changes in the private sector he was personally involved in. The major post-9/11 change in the private sector, especially for financial institutions, was the enactment of the Patriot Act, which also paved the way for other significant changes. Financial Institutions and broker-dealers had to harden the security of buildings and supply chains across the country’s infrastructure. There was also an explosion of no-fly lists, watch lists, and terrorist watch lists. Banks, building owners, and brokerage companies often had to navigate these systems quickly. Scott was heavily involved in helping these institutions meet their anti-money-laundering and security obligations. Looking to the Future Tom asks Scott to share reflections on 9/11 and the future. Scott remarks that after 9/11, the country was more united and people were more compassionate toward one another. The best of humanity in the form of kindness and outpouring of love was seen not just from Americans to each other, but from the rest of the world to America. He hopes he can see that kind of love and unity again someday. Resources: Scott Moritz | ⁠LinkedIn⁠ ⁠Fraud Eats Strategy Front Office Agents Podcast Learn more about your ad choices.
