The Morgan Lewis Takeover Monitor documents public tender offers in Germany for Morgan Lewis clients and interested persons. This issue covers published and announced current offers as of October 12, 2022.

The takeover offer to the shareholders of Lübeck-based SLM Solutions Group AG (SLM) draws particular attention because its closing and consummation are subject to the obtainment of foreign direct investment control approvals in several jurisdictions – at a time when national security considerations appear to be gaining infuence in the review of foreign direct investment transactions.
