Latham Enhances Foreign Direct Investment Regimes App

September 4, 2025
App allows users to stay ahead of global regulatory changes with practical summaries on CFIUS and other FDI regimes.

In a rapidly shifting global investment landscape, staying ahead of regulatory change is critical. Latham & Watkins is pleased to announce a major update to its Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) Regimes App, which features practical summaries on the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) and other FDI regimes.

The enhanced FDI app provides users with the most current information on FDI screening triggers, filing requirements, processes, and timelines. This update comes in response to significant changes in the foreign investment landscape, including the 2025 America First Investment Policy and the launch of the CFIUS Fast Track Pilot Program. As enforcement rises and regulations evolve in jurisdictions from Europe to Asia, the app ensures that users remain informed and compliant.

“The rules are evolving make sure you’re current,” said Les Carnegie, a partner in Latham’s Washington, D.C. office and co-leader of the firm’s CFIUS & US National Security Practice. “Our updated FDI app is an essential tool for businesses navigating the complexities of global investment regulations. It reflects our commitment to providing innovative solutions and comprehensive insights to our clients.”

The app supplies key information on foreign investment in 13 countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, China, France, Germany, and Saudi Arabia. Topics covered include legal authorities, mandatory and voluntary filings, filing fees, penalties, and more.

“The Latham FDI app offers cross-border dealmakers a unique resource to provide them with important, jurisdiction-specific insights about FDI regimes in over a dozen countries,” said Paul Rosen, a partner at Latham and former Assistant Secretary of the US Department of Treasury for Investment Security. “The app complements Latham’s global footprint of exceptional transactional and regulatory lawyers who help clients navigate the complex and evolving FDI landscape.”

The FDI app is available for free download, offering users a seamless experience to stay informed where it counts.

Download the FDI app from the App Store and Google Play.
