Under what conditions might a foreign acquisition of a US company
constitute a genuine national security threat to the United States?
What kinds of risks and threats should analysts and strategists on
the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS),
as well as their congressional overseers, be prepared to identify
and deal with? This study looks at three types of foreign
acquisitions of US companies that may pose a legitimate national
security threat.The first is a proposed acquisition that would make
the United States dependent on a foreign-controlled supplier of
goods or services that are crucial to the functioning of the US
economy and that this supplier might delay, deny, or place
conditions on the provision of those goods or services. The second
is a proposed acquisition that would allow the transfer to a
foreign-controlled entity of technology or other expertise that
might be deployed in a manner harmful to US national interests. The
third potential threat is a proposed acquisition that would provide
the capability to infiltrate, conduct surveillance on, or sabotage
the provision of goods or services that are crucial to the
functioning of the US economy. This study analyzes these threats in
detail and considers what criteria are needed for a proposed
foreign acquisition to be considered threatening. Ultimately, the
vast majority of foreign acquisitions pose no credible threat to
national security on these grounds.
