Update on Foreign Direct Investments in the EU, Germany, the USA and UK
Webinar | 07.14.22, 8:00 AM EDT - 9:00 AM EDT
Please join us for an update on the current developments at the EU level, in Germany as well as in the USA and UK. We look forward to a thoughtful discussion from Stephan Müller of Oppenhoff and Caroline Brown and Peter Broadhurst of Crowell & Moring.
Foreign trade law, and in particular Foreign Investment Control has become an important instrument for protecting national security interests. This applies to Germany, but also internationally.
In Germany, the relevant provisions of the Foreign Trade and Payments Ordinance have been expanded and tightened with unprecedented dynamism. Similarly, the USA has reformed and tightened its CFIUS rules, while the UK enacted investment control regulations for the first time in early 2022.
As a result, investors must be clear about whether a so-called foreign investment clearance or approval has to be obtained in advance of an intended acquisition.

Rethinking "the Administrative State" - Takeaways From the Supreme Court's 2025–26 Term
The Supreme Court's 2025–26 term took up several momentous cases that will influence and, in key respects, reorient constitutional separation-of-powers principles moving forward. Join the D.C. Bar Administrative Law and Agency Practice Community for a discussion of the key takeaways from the Supreme Court's 2025-26 term. This panel will examine decisions addressing the scope of executive branch authority, including cases involving tariffs issued under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and the removal of leaders of so-called independent agencies. The discussion will also address significant orders issued on the Court's emergency docket and what these decisions and orders signal about the distinct roles the three branches of federal government play in shaping the administrative state.
