Fieldfisher hosted a webinar with representatives from the UK Investment Security Unit and our own European FDI partners on the latest trends in FDI enforcement.
With countries taking a more protectionist approach towards foreign investments, Foreign Direct Investment rules are becoming an increasing risk for UK and European M&A transactions. A plethora of new or expanded FDI regimes are increasing time and cost to transactions.
Miguel Vaz, Partner in our London Competition and FDI practice, moderates a multi-jurisdictional panel, with guest speakers from the UK, as well as Foreign Direct Investment experts from Fieldfisher's offices in France, Germany and Spain.
We are delighted that the panel was joined by Amy Newland, Deputy Director at the UK's Investment Security Unit, representatives from regulatory bodies, industry experts including our lawyers and clients.
This diverse mix of perspectives offers a holistic view of the UK and European FDI landscape.
