Podcast #31: Key Implications of the UK's New CFIUS-Style Foreign Investment Regime for Chinese Investors

National security has driven reforms to foreign direct investment regimes around the world, including the United States, Australia, the EU and China. The U.K. is the latest major economy to join in on the act with its new National Security and Investment Bill, which will for the first time in the country's history introduce a standalone foreign investment regime similar to the U.S. CFIUS review process. Roger Barron and Garrett Hayes discuss the ins and outs of the new regime: its scope and review timeline, the impact on M&A auctions and completed transactions, and recommendations for Chinese investors.
