AI Summary

This bill, the Outbound Investment Transparency Act of 2023, establishes an investment screening mechanism to protect "covered sectors" such as advanced semiconductors, artificial intelligence, and quantum information science. It requires U.S. persons to notify the Secretary of the Treasury before engaging in certain covered activities related to these sectors in "countries of concern," which are specified by regulations. The bill also mandates reporting requirements, authorizes penalties for non-compliance, and directs the Secretary of State to coordinate with U.S. allies and partners to develop similar outbound investment screening mechanisms. The overall goal is to enhance transparency and address national security risks associated with U.S. investment in critical technology areas.
