ACI's CFIUS Returns to D.C. to Address the Evolving Landscape of Inbound Foreign Investments

WASHINGTON - March 7, 2022 - PRLog -- The American Conference Institute (ACI) will address critical updates and best strategies at its 8^th National Conference on CFIUS taking place at the Washington Plaza Hotel, Washington, D.C. from April 26-27, 2022.

"I'd to discuss at the CFIUS Conference the continued outreach of CFIUS with respect to non-notified transactions. It's changing the landscape and changing the calculus for parties to transactions," says conference co-chair Jeanine P. McGuinness, Partner, International Trade & Compliance at Orrick.

"This is a great opportunity to hear from a terrific array of U.S. government speakers [to hear directly from them, as well as experienced CFIUS practitioners," says conference co-chair Stephen R. Heifetz, Partner, National Security at Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati.

As more inbound foreign investments are subject to CFIUS scrutiny, the new regulations are creating an environment of assessment, review, execution and post-closing supervision that is far more complex than we have seen in CFIUS's 30-year history. As such, it is now critically important for global businesses to have access to the knowledge needed to make crucial decisions.

Distinguished speakers includes:

• Matthew S. Borman, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Export Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce
• David Jividen, Deputy Director, CFIUS Foreign Investment Review (FIR), OSD, Industrial Policy, U.S. Department of Defense
• Thomas Liu, Deputy Director, Compliance and Monitoring, Foreign Investments Review - Committee on Foreign Investments in the U.S. (CFIUS) / Industrial Policy, Office of the Undersecretary of Defense, Acquisition & Sustainment
• Andrew J. Pahutski, Director, Foreign Investment Review, Industrial Policy, A&S, OSD, U.S. Department of Defense
