Global investment capital flows like water. It takes the path of least resistance around –and away from—restrictive or unpredictable regulatory regimes. And yet without appropriate regulation, critical infrastructure and the essential security of a state can be compromised. Is there a correct balance? Or is the winning play a regime that is simply less restrictive than peer nations? This panel will compare, contrast, and critique approaches to foreign investment control across Five Eyes nations, as they seek to balance attracting foreign capital and national security concerns, and answering the simple question: who is ready, willing, and able to take my money to develop the critical mineral projects needed for national success?
