CFIUS Compliance and Review

CFIUS Compliance Advisory Services

The globalization of markets and capital, combined with greater governmental sensitivity to potential national security issues, has elevated national security risk in the spectrum of business concerns. Managing CFIUS, Team Telecom and foreign ownership, control and influence (FOCI) requirements, as well as sanctions and export controls compliance, calls for a partner with deep regulatory experience, extensive due diligence capability and local intelligence-gathering in locations around the world.

Whether you are a private fund adviser evaluating potential foreign limited partners, a foreign-owned company seeking to understand how the U.S. government may view your U.S. investment through a national security lens, a manufacturer ensuring export controls and sanctions compliance across your supply chain, or a foreign-owned telecommunications carrier seeking to mitigate potential risks associated with your managed service providers, Kroll can help. 

Our CFIUS and National Security Advisory practice includes former senior U.S. government officials with firsthand experience setting the direction of CFIUS, Team Telecom and other national security regulatory bodies. Many of our professionals have led foreign investment review teams at the U.S. Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security and Department of Commerce. Having served on the other side of the negotiating table as high level U.S. government officials or as their agents, our professionals have unique insight into the concerns that the U.S. government may have about a transaction beyond the four corners of the regulations. Their expertise is complemented by a global team of professionals drawn from the ranks of former prosecutors, law enforcement and intelligence officers.
