Welcome to the Orrick Guide to Foreign Investment Reviews. This guide answers frequently asked questions regarding investment control regimes in various jurisdictions. It has been prepared by the experts in our offices worldwide. Their contact details are included at the end of each country section. The regulatory landscape for foreign investments is continuously changing across all jurisdictions covered by this guide. A major contributor to this trend is concerns about investment by state owned or state-controlled foreign players and the possibly adverse effects that such investments may have for national security or national interests. A number of countries have, therefore, introduced new measures to provide for review of investments by non-nationals or strengthened their existing measures. The next pages include a summary of recent developments.
