Abstract
The Foreign Subsidies Regulation contains provisions enabling the Commission to launch ex officio investigations into foreign subsidies distorting the internal market. The legislation is designed to be complementary to existing anti-subsiding rules and follows a logic that is reminiscent of the European competition law. This article discusses its applicability in the field of trade in goods and the risks of inconsistency with the World Trade Organization (WTO) Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures (SCM).
