G.J. Ligelis Jr., Chris Fargo, Alyssa Caples and Maggie Segall Co‑Author U.S. Chapters of Chambers Investing In… 2026 Guide

Cravath partners G.J. Ligelis Jr., Christopher K. Fargo, Alyssa K. Caples and Margaret T. Segall co‑authored the U.S. Law & Practice chapter of the Chambers Investing In… 2026 guide, which was published in January 2026. The guide, which is part of the publisher’s Global Practice Guide series, examines country‑specific legal issues that arise from foreign direct investment (“FDI”) and cross‑border transactions in the more than 30 jurisdictions covered. The U.S. Law & Practice chapter surveys the legal system and regulatory framework for FDI in the country, analyzing the economic climate as well as considerations related to mergers and acquisitions, corporate governance, capital markets, antitrust, national security, tax, employment and intellectual property.

G.J. also served as contributing editor of the volume and authored both the introduction and the U.S. Trends & Developments chapter. The introduction outlines the purpose of the guide and highlights globally applicable developments in FDI, including geopolitical tensions, industrial policy and protectionism and national security restrictions. The U.S. Trends & Developments chapter offers an in‑depth analysis of some of the factors behind the country’s position as a top destination again for FDI in 2025, including legislative and executive action with direct implications for FDI.
