Deborah Curtis, Former Deputy GC for Litigation and Investigations at CIA and BIS Chief Counsel, Weighs in on China Investment Screening Legislation for Roll Call
October 10, 2024
White Collar Defense & Investigations partner Deborah Curtis was quoted in the Roll Call article, “China Hawks Prep Tech Investment Screening Measure,” which addresses a recent bipartisan amendment that would require U.S. companies and individuals to notify the Treasury Department about any planned investments in certain critical tech sectors in China.
“Investors are undoubtedly uncertain about how these different mandates would interact,” Curtis said. “There are still unknowns over the actual capture of the Treasury regulation, and new statutory disclosure obligations would only up the ante — as broad disclosure obligations will spawn additional regulation, as night follows day.”
