The UK’s New National Security and Investment Bill – Key points for sell-side and buy-side investors

In this seminar, Willkie partners Philipp Girardet, David Mortlock, Gavin Gordon and Jeffrey Poss provide an overview of the UK’s new National Security and Investment Bill, which will have retrospective effect for certain deals, and discuss practical buy-side and sell-side considerations in relation to the new rules.  The presenters also compare the new UK regime with the US foreign investment screening regime administered by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), which has expanded during the past year with new legislation and rules issued by the Committee.

For background information, please see our client alert on the new UK regime here and on the CFIUS regime here.
