Investing and carrying out transactions in Central and Eastern Europe is, to a large extent, a business opportunity, but at the same time an increasing challenge. The dynamically evolving regulations on foreign direct investment (FDI) control and merger control require entrepreneurs not only to remain vigilant but also to have access to reliable and up-to-date information.

It is in response to these challenges that the practical guide “FDI and Merger Control in CEE: Your A-Z Guide” has been drawn up. This tool is addressed to entrepreneurs and investors as an aid in making informed and safe business decisions.

The guide covers eight national jurisdictions – Croatia, the Czech Republic, Montenegro, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia and Hungary – and provides practical insights on, among other issues, notification thresholds, filing requirements and transaction structuring. It should stand investors in good stead as they plan their projects, helping them to mitigate regulatory risks and to implement transactions safely. As regards Poland, the guide contains detailed information on applicable regulations and the practices generally followed by the competent national authorities.

We are proud to have joined our colleagues from the following law firms in preparing this publication: Biriș Goran SPARL (Romania), Erdős Partners (Hungary), HKV Law Firm (Slovakia), LOVRIĆ NOVOKMET & PARTNERS LLC (Croatia), NKO Partners (Montenegro), NKO Partners (Serbia), ROWAN LEGAL (Czech Republic).
