Abstract

Zusammenfassung Die Europäische Union steht ausländischen Direktinvestitionen bislang sehr offen gegenüber, entsprechend sind in hohem Maße Direktinvestitionen ausländischer Investoren zugeflossen. Doch das könnte sich ändern. Im September 2017 legte die Europäische Kommission einen Vorschlag zur Schaffung eines Rahmens für die Überprüfung ausländischer Direktinvestitionen in der EU vor, der derzeit das reguläre Gesetzgebungsverfahren durchläuft. Noch für 2018 wird ein Abschluss des Verfahrens angestrebt. Ziel des Verordnungsentwurfs ist es, die Eingriffsbefugnisse der Mitgliedstaaten bei Direktinvestitionen aus Drittstaaten zu stärken. Dies spiegelt auch die Sorge vor einem Ausverkauf europäischer Unternehmen und deren technologischen Know-hows an vornehmlich chinesische Investoren. Sind diese Sorgen berechtigt und braucht die EU einen stärkeren Schutz vor ausländischen Investoren? Oder handelt es sich hierbei um Protektionismus, der Grundprinzipien der Marktwirtschaft unterminiert und den europäischen Volkswirtschaften letztlich zum Schaden gereicht?
