Latest edition of Foreign Investment Regulation Review published
Highlighting the essential practical and strategic considerations for foreign investors contemplating international or cross-border deals, Foreign Investment Regulation Review focuses on the latest enforcement trends and developments arising from the increased scope of foreign investment regulation worldwide, as well as the growth in intensity of interventions. In partnership with Law Business Research and Lexology, we are once again proud to be co-editor of this in-depth publication through our antitrust and foreign investment partner Alex Potter, and to be the main contributor with chapters covering 12 jurisdictions and the preface authored by Freshfields lawyers.
With a growing number of reviewable transactions being subject to remedies ranging from specific corrective orders to outright prohibitions, and the broadening of the concept of national security, which forms the heart of many foreign investment reviews, staying on top of this dynamic and increasingly complex regulatory landscape remains critical to investment success. The combination of our expertise in foreign investment regulation and our world-leading merger control practice means we are uniquely positioned to provide the necessary co-ordinated approach to obtaining global, regulatory approvals. We are very pleased to be able to offer you access to this interactive digital version of the Foreign Investment Regulation Review handbook.
