Forum Investitionsprüfung e.V.

Purpose and functions

We promote the exchange of ideas among practitioners as well as with academics and researchers on topics relating to the review of foreign investments, particularly under German and European law.

Investment control has gained considerable importance and attention in the changed geopolitical situation. This is reflected in the increasing number of M&A transactions that have been subject to notification and scrutiny for years, as well as in widely discussed prohibitions and less visible restrictions.

A large number of stakeholders are involved in fundamental questions and specific legal developments in investment screening. In addition to the companies involved in the transaction, these include lawyers and representatives of authorities, courts and associations.
This results in an urgent need and a strong interest in an exchange beyond the specific audit procedures. The Forum Investitionsprüfung offers a suitable platform for this exchange of expertise and experience.
