Global rules on foreign direct investment (FDI)
Cross-border acquisitions and investments increasingly trigger foreign direct investment (FDI) screening requirements.
United Kingdom | Publication | June 2022
UK regulated firms seeking to comply with the Russian sanctions have had to grapple with fast moving legislative and regulatory change, and have inevitably encountered governance challenges along the way. The lessons learned as part of that process have read across which may assist firms in reacting to future develeopments beyond sanctions. Conducting a governance review in this context will enable firms to benefit from recent experience by identifying such lessons and may act as a catalyst for any remediation required so as to ensure the business is better positioned to react and respond to the next set of challenges. We set out below some of the emerging governance themes that we see as being particularly pertinent at the current time.
Our sanctions and financial services teams have extensive experience of helping clients to navigate these complexities, and would be delighted to assist firms looking for guidance in this area.
