USCIB Quoted in Financial Times Article “US Businesses Urge Trump to Intervene Over New EU Consumer Rules”

Kristen Edgreen Kaufman, Senior Vice President, Global Impact at USCIB, was quoted in Financial Times on May 8. The article, US Businesses Urge Trump to Intervene Over New EU Consumer Rules, also highlights a letter USCIB co-signed that said the “revision unfairly tipped the scales in favour of those seeking compensation, often via lawsuits funded by third parties.”

FT quoted Kaufman: “Take the situation where a patient is harmed by an AI-powered diagnostic tool. Under old rules, they had to prove that a defect caused injury, now the manufacturer has to show the product wasn’t defective rather than the victim prove it was.”
