Dr Georgina Tsagas
Dr Georgina Tsagas’ research trajectory includes an examination of the legality of the grounds on which government intervention in foreign takeovers may be enabled as part of the UK Government’s plan for a stronger industrial policy following the Brexit referendum.
At present, the 2002 Enterprise Act only allows ministers to prevent mergers on the basis of financial stability, media plurality and national security. Case studies examined include the recent Unilever/Kraft attempted bid.
