A framework for screening of foreign direct investments into the European Union
This procedure establishes a coordinated EU framework to screen foreign direct investments. It aims to help member states identify and assess security or public order risks posed by investments from non-EU countries, ensuring that critical infrastructure and technology are protected from potential threats.
This affects non-EU investors and companies seeking to invest in the European Union. It provides member states with a mechanism to share information and coordinate their screening processes to prevent security gaps.
