Across borders

Complications to check

Issues to assess when more than one country is involved. They are prompts, not conclusions about any country's law.

  • Foreign investment controlsA proposed ownership change may require sector or national security clearance
  • Merger control timingA proposed transaction may need clearance in multiple markets
  • Environmental permit interfacesProjects cross regional, national or transboundary environmental regimes
  • Different laws of contractParties sign one commercial agreement but disagree which law governs duties, damages and remedies
  • Audit licensing & independenceAudit work requires jurisdiction-specific licensing and independence checks
