Webinar: FDI review – is increasing deglobalisation justified by protecting national security?
Speakers
In this webinar our cross-border team of competition and corporate law experts will take a look at the EU Foreign Direct Investment Regulation, namely its implementation and status across the EU, with a focus on Germany and the Netherlands, to examine whether there is a trend towards increased protectionism within the EU.
The speakers will also look at the UK’s developing National Security and Investment Act, which has now been in play for just over a year, to consider whether any trends are emerging.
The webinar will cover certain key aspects that companies should consider as they invest in companies located in other countries, which may fall in the scope of the critical infrastructure or sensitive technology sectors.
After a short overview of the EU legislation, the speakers will touch upon the UK, German and Dutch regimes and provide further insights on the key corporate/transactional considerations.
