Prescient

Purpose-built for FDI screening timelines

Prescient is a proprietary deadline calculator developed by Stratalis to address a critical operational challenge in FDI screening practice: the complexity of computing legally binding review periods across EU member states, accounting for public holidays, suspension events and phase transitions.

Unlike generic calendar tools, Prescient applies jurisdiction-specific rules, including the Belgian CFI calendar, German BMWK phase logic and French Trésor notification timelines, to produce accurate, actionable deadline maps for any cross-border transaction.
