Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS)

The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) is a U.S. government panel that reviews foreign investments in American companies. Its main goal is to protect national security by assessing if these investments could pose risks, such as threats to critical technologies or infrastructure. CFIUS can recommend that transactions be blocked or modified if they are deemed harmful. The committee includes representatives from various government agencies, ensuring a comprehensive evaluation of potential foreign influence on U.S. assets and industries.
