Navigate foreign investment scrutiny with confidence
Foreign investment is becoming more complex and riskier. Countries worldwide – including the US, EU member states, and emerging economies – are intensifying their national security reviews. Driven by geopolitical tensions and growing concerns about technology, data and security, governments are scrutinising foreign investments more closely than ever. These regulations can shift quickly and have far-reaching impacts.

Our approach helps you evaluate potential exposure, reduce transaction risks, maximise investment value and maintain compliance with government requirements.
