Merger control & FDI
We recognise the importance of mergers, acquisitions and joint ventures to our clients and deliver expert advice in relation to all competition aspects of such transactions.
We act on complex cross-border transactions requiring a strategic and coordinated approach to multi-jurisdictional merger control, including a national security and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) control review. We can support you on:
- structuring your transaction with regard to merger control, FDI and national security issues including assessing their application and the considerations to take;
- the application of the merger control, FDI and national security rules to joint ventures;
- the interaction of merger control, FDI and national security rules and public company listing rules (where relevant);
- reviewing internal documents relevant to the assessment, and efficiently managing the regulatory review process.
