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 regularly advise clients on all competition law aspects of transactions, from strategic assessment through to securing regulatory clearances. Our experience spans merger control, national security and foreign direct investment (FDI) screening, digital markets regulation and the EU Foreign Subsidies Regulation (FSR). We handle complex, cross‑border transactions requiring coordinated multi‑jurisdictional merger control strategies, helping clients obtain unconditional clearances or negotiate acceptable remedies. Where needed, we work with a trusted global network of competition counsel.
