2019年以降、日本は米国への最大の投資先となっており、日本の対米直接投資は2022年には7750億ドルに達しました。これは2009年に行われた対米直接投資の3倍にのぼる規模であり、日米間の強固な経済関係を示しています。米国は先進国の中で最も大きく、今後も成長が見込まれる市場であり、日米の政治的、経済的な結びつきを背景に、今後も日本企業による最有力な投資先の一つであり続けると予想されます。また、米国では近年、国内生産を条件とする優遇策を導入するなどの国内産業振興策を導入する傾向が強まっていることも、米国への投資の必要性を後押しすると考えられます。

この度、ウィザース東京オフィスでは、米国M&Aセミナーを開催する運びとなりました。本セミナーは、アメリカ市場でのプレゼンス拡大を目指す日本企業の皆様に、クロスボーダー投資における法的・税務的留意点から、既存のトレンドまで、当事務所の専門家や第一人者が解説いたします。

セミナー内容は以下となります。

  • 市場概要(セクター別の成長分野、新たなトレンド、潜在的課題)
  • 投資ストラクチャー、契約条項等
  • 対米投資関連法規(最近の競争法改正、CFIUS等、実務動向を中心に)
  • PMIを取り巻く米国ビジネス環境の概要(労働法、プライバシー保護法等)
  • 税金の影響とストラクチャリング
  • 市場参入と事業成功のためのベストプラクティス 

本セミナーは主に日本語で行われ、英語で行われる部分については随時日本語による補足説明が入る予定です。

今後米国への新たな投資を検討なさっている企業の皆様のみならず、すでに米国事業を行っていらっしゃる皆様にとっても有益な内容と存じます。

Japan into USA M&A Seminar MAY 14th 

Since 2019, Japan has been the largest source of foreign direct investment into the US.

According to recent research, Japanese direct investment in the United States reached a staggering $775 billion in 2022, which is three times greater than the investment made in 2009. These figures highlight the strong and enduring economic relationship between the two nations and the tremendous potential for Japanese businesses to thrive in the US market. It is the largest market among developed countries and is expected to continue to grow. With the political and economic ties between Japan and the U.S., the United States is expected to remain one of the most promising investment destinations for Japanese companies. In addition, the growing trend in the U.S. in recent years to introduce measures to promote domestic industry, such as the introduction of preferential policies that require domestic production, is also expected to support the need for investment in the U.S.

We are delighted to invite you to a seminar about M&A into the USA to be held at our Withers Tokyo office. This seminar presents a unique opportunity for Japanese corporates seeking to expand their presence in the American market, and to hear from our experts and thought leaders on existing trends as well as the legal and tax considerations when it comes to cross-border investments.

This seminar will cover:

  • Market overview (sector-specific growth areas, emerging trends, potential challenges) 
  • Investment Structures, Contractual Clauses, etc.
  • Laws and regulations related to investment in the U.S. (focusing on recent amendments to competition laws, CFIUS, etc. and practical trends)
  • Overview of the U.S. business environment for PMI (labor laws, privacy protection laws, etc.)
  • Tax implications and structuring 
  • Best practices for market entry and operational success 

Please note that the seminar will be conducted mainly in Japanese, with English speaker presentations accompanied by Japanese translations.
