BackOn August 28, 2026, President Sheinbaum submitted a bill (the “Bill”) proposing an amendment to the Foreign Investment Act (the “FIA”) to introduce a dedicated national-security screening regime.
The proposal would update the current general authority of the National Foreign Investment Commission (“CNIE”) to block foreign acquisitions on national-security grounds. The stated objective is to identify and mitigate risks arising from foreign investment while providing transparency and predictability to investors.
