Recent tightening of investment regulations (CFIUS) by the United States and the impact of Japanese companies on overseas M & A and its actual situation (including: points that Japanese companies should consider when considering expansion into China)
Overseas M & A by Japanese companies has been on a marked increase in recent years.In overseas M & A, it is necessary to deal with enormous volume, complicated and esoteric laws and regulations of each country, and the sanctions and responsibilities for violating these are incomparably stricter than domestic M & A. Invite.In this webinar, we will take up the US inward foreign direct investment regulation (CFIUS), which can be said to have become indispensable for overseas M & A in recent years, even among such regulations of each country. We will explain what kind of analysis and risk judgments are made at the M & A site.
The importance of CFIUS is that it is a "black box" world in which the results of CFIUS examinations and dispositions by the regulators, as well as the types of examinations being conducted, are not made public. This is because CFIUS is a world of "black boxes" where the results of examinations and dispositions by the authorities and what kind of examinations are being conducted are not made public. This webinar also explains on these field and practical sensitivities. The first part will provide an overview of CFIUS and the amendments made in 2020.
Only members can watch it.

Overseas M&A by Japanese companies has increased significantly over the past several years. In overseas M&A, the volume, complexity, and difficulty of the laws and regulations of each country must be addressed, and the sanctions and liabilities for violations of these laws and regulations can be far more severe than those for domestic M&A. In this seminar, we will focus on the U.S. Foreign Direct Investment Regulations (CFIUS), which have become mandatory for overseas M&A in recent years, and explain not only the regulations but also how they are analyzed and risk judgments are made in actual M&A situations.
