Abstract

AbstractThis chapter analyses Acts (here, the translation of ‘lag’ and ‘lov’ into English is ‘Act’) on investment screening and protective security agreements in Finland, Norway, Sweden and Denmark. To put the existing Acts into perspective, also potential future Acts are discussed. The following questions are asked: Which acquisitions are screened/monitored or subject to protective security agreements? Which sectors and factors are considered? Which are the reasons for rejection? This chapter shows that Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland have quite different systems. Out of the four countries, Finland has the only investment screening mechanism, but to accommodate the new EU Screening Regulation on investment screening, the Act needs to be somewhat updated.
