Event Synopsis:

As transactional activities continue to accelerate across a wide range of industries, companies need to be aware of antitrust risks. In recent years, global antitrust and competition enforcement has become increasingly aggressive. In the U.S., courts have issued important decisions in merger cases in the past year, which is evolving the judicial treatment of mergers. Under the Trump administration, enforcement policies under the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (DOJ) are likely to differ in important ways from those of the Obama administration.
