In eight cases, CFIUS told the parties to the transactions that they could not identify a way to mitigate the national security harm and refused to approve the proposed deals, or the companies rejected the proposed mitigation.
In a ninth case, CFIUS referred a deal to Trump, who prohibited it at the panel’s recommendation. The report identified that deal as Beijing Shiji Information Technology Co’s effort to buy StayNTouch, which allows hotel owners to manage their properties remotely.
