Protect European companies from hostile Chinese takeovers

The European Commission’s new White Paper on foreign takeovers is not enough - quick action is needed. While the crisis has caused European companies’ value to fall, they have valuable technology, infrastructure, expertise and jobs that must be defended and not lost to a foreign takeover.
