title = {FDI and Technological Development in Brazil: A New Regulatory Framework?},
year = {2022},
note = {This paper analyses newly regulatory moves towards Foreign Direct
Investment – FDI in Brazil. For that purpose, this paper explores
the key economic rationale for regulating FDI and provides a legal
baseline based on relevant FDI screening regimes already in force in
mature jurisdictions. Later, this paper presents a brief assessment of
the current Brazilian regulatory and governance scenario relating to
FDI control, to demonstrate potential deficiencies that could emerge
due to the lack of a structured FDI screening in the country,
particularly the absence of quality control of FDI targeted to certain
key areas, as well as risks of high political interference, which
could generate undesirable effects on the country’s technological
development and increase its level of dependence on technology
developers.},
