Introduction of Foreign Investment Control – Swiss Federal Council…

Switzerland does not yet have an overarching regime for the screening of foreign direct investments in place. The draft legislation published on 15 December 2023 seeks to introduce a targeted sector-specific foreign investment control regime in Switzerland and aims to regulate acquisitions of domestic companies operating in particularly critical sectors by foreign state-controlled investors.

The legislation is not expected to enter into force before 2025/2026.
