Our panelists will discuss the new EU Foreign Subsidies Regulation and its potential impact on acquisitions involving targets with significant business in the EU, developments in the CFIUS regime and CFIUS enforcement efforts, the recent executive order (commonly referred to as “Reverse CFIUS”) regulating certain outbound investment into China, and the latest developments on the antitrust front, including the proposed revised HSR rules and the proposed new US horizontal merger guidelines.
