Biography

Nate Sibley is a research fellow and director of Hudson Institute’s Kleptocracy Initiative. His research explores the relationship between authoritarianism, corruption and other illicit finance, and national security.

Mr. Sibley works closely with the US government and its allies to advance innovative policies in the fields of anti-money laundering, economic statecraft, and democracy promotion. His work is credited with helping to elevate transnational corruption as a core US national security concern.
