Rebecca Vikjær-Andresen's experience in EU state aid law includes handling of notification and complaint procedures involving the European Commission and assistance with legal proceedings before the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU). Rebecca has assisted authorities with comprehensive reviews of national regulation with a focus on compliance with EU law and potential supererogatory implementation of EU law, among others. Rebecca's experience also includes the EU law aspects of financial regulation and EU law regulation of alternative investment fund managers. Rebecca has extensive experience in the Danish FDI rules and has dealt with the rules from many different angles, including the application process, pre-screening, risk assessments, drafting clauses that regulate finally entering into a transaction after a contractual party has received its approval and the significance of the contractual party's subsequent failure to renew the approval or if the approval has been withdrawn, dealing with a potential approval requirement in tender processes as well as planning internal procedures at enterprises and authorities to identify transactions that could be subject to screening requirements.
