Guest article on deal certainty and predictability in FDI control

The current issue of the magazine“unternehmensjurist” (06/2023, p. 48 ff.) contains a guest article by KPMG Law expert Jonas Brueckner.

Cross-border transactions are an M&A reality. Countries around the world are tightening their controls on foreign direct investment in the interests of security and to protect against influence. Most of the increasing FDI regimes worldwide grant the state broad discretion through deliberately vague regulations. Knowledge of the national regulations, the authorities involved and the practical effects of controls on transactions is crucial to success.

You can find out more about this topic in the 06/2023 issue of the magazine “unternehmensjurist”.
