In today’s global market, it has become more common for cross-border acquisitions and investments to trigger foreign investment restriction screening requirements. Since the start of the pandemic, many jurisdictions have approved new screening regimes or revised pre-existing parameters. While some of these regimes may be eased in the coming months, many will likely remain as the new normal.

The Lex Mundi Foreign Investment Restrictions Guide was developed to help in-house counsel understand, navigate & anticipate regime changes on the horizon in more than 55 jurisdictions around the world, all in a side-by-side customized report.
