AEGIS Europe appreciates the opportunity to give input in the context of the revision of the Foreign Direct Investment Screening Regulation.

The EUs FDI screening framework has contributed, over the past couple of years, to identifying and addressing risks to security and public order related to FDIs, while ensuring that the EU remains open to foreign investment. A revised FDI screening framework should maintain this balance. Achieving the EUs ambitious decarbonization targets requires very significant investments.

Method. Every quote is verbatim from the organization’s own submission to the European Commission, trimmed to its opening passage and never summarized by a model. Where a submission was filed in another EU language we show the English text the European Commission publishes alongside it, labeled on the quote; the original is one click away at the source. Groupings use the respondent type the organization itself selected when filing. We deliberately do not label anyone “supportive” or “opposed” — you read what they wrote and draw your own conclusion. Organizations only, never individuals. Reused under Commission Decision 2011/833/EU; the European Commission is not liable for this reuse.
