22 Myths About the U.S. Market Myth: All foreign investment in the United States is subject to undue scrutiny. Facts: CFIUS has the authority under a voluntary review mechanism to review individual FDI transactions to determine their effects, if any, on national security. The overwhelming majority of FDI in the United States does not result in a CFIUS review. Where CFIUS reviews have been conducted, risk mitigation assurances are requested for only a few transactions per year 22
23 Myths About the U.S. Market Myth: U.S. laws and business culture make it difficult to do business Facts: According to the World Bank s Ease of Doing Business Index, the U.S. ranks as the one of the world s best economies for doing business and ranks #5 overall The United States has clear rules governing business, which make for a predictable market. Foreign firms receive the full benefit of this transparency, as foreign and domestic firms are treated equally. 23
