As the regulatory environment continues to heat up worldwide for cross-border direct investment, global law powerhouse Latham & Watkins is introducing a new mobile application designed to make navigating the complexities a bit easier.

The firm on Thursday announced the launch of its Foreign Direct Investments Regimes application for iPhone and iPad at the Apple App Store and Android devices at Google Play. The app is a free, interactive tool summarising important aspects of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) and similar regimes in other countries across the globe.
