New Foreign Investment Regulation offers insight on stricter foreign investment regimes

In the wake of recent geopolitical tensions, foreign investment reviews by government bodies across the globe are becoming increasingly more stringent, with heightened scrutiny of transactions in sensitive sectors such as technology, infrastructure and natural resources.

The newly launched 2025 edition of In-depth: Foreign Investment Regulation (formerly Foreign Investment Regulation Review) comprises a comprehensive overview of the laws, regulations, policies and practices governing foreign investment in key international jurisdictions.

This 12th edition, co-edited by Alex Potter and featuring Freshfields contributors, includes:

analysis of recent regulatory changes in 23 jurisdictions, 11 of which have been authored by Freshfields;
expert commentary from leading practitioners; and
in-depth case studies and practical guidance.

Business leaders and legal counsel alike can stay informed of complex, practical and strategic FDI considerations with In-depth: Foreign Investment Regulation.
