The Dutch government has announced tighter export controls on chipmaking equipment, requiring ASML Holding N.V. and ASM International to apply for licenses directly from the Dutch authorities rather than through the United States. This move aligns with recent U.S. efforts to restrict the flow of advanced chips to China, as the U.S. has reportedly urged TSMC and Samsung to implement similar measures. ASML has stated that it does not foresee any additional impact from these new Dutch regulations. The changes reflect growing concerns in Europe regarding technological investments that could enhance the defense and intelligence capabilities of third countries.
