Highlighting the need for predictable investment policies

On Tuesday, 29 April, Andrew Hill, Senior Policy Adviser, AmCham EU represented the organisation at CompLaw's Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) Regimes & Foreign Subsidies Regulation conference. Joining the panel on the EU foreign direct investment screening mechanism, Mr Hill stressed the need to align FDI screening frameworks across borders and to ensure that FDI screening is focused on transactions with clear national security concerns. He also underlined the importance of predictability for businesses operating in the Single Market. The Foreign Investment Screening Regulation, if designed correctly, could make a significant impact in safeguarding security while preserving Europe's openness to global investment.
