Overview:
Intensified antitrust merger enforcement is expected to continue under the Biden Administration in 2021 and beyond. As the Trump administration winds down, companies contemplating mergers and acquisitions must prepare for antitrust scrutiny going forward, including the potential for more aggressive merger enforcement under the Biden administration, close scrutiny of acquisitions of nascent competitors, multi-jurisdictional analysis, increased scrutiny for financial investors.
With these emerging challenges in the M&A landscape, it is crucial for companies that engage in related transactions to implement best practices. This is even more important now as intensified policy measures are also being imposed in response to the COVID-19 crisis.
In this LIVE Webcast, a distinguished panel of key thought leaders and professionals assembled by The Knowledge Group will provide an in-depth discussion of recent antitrust merger enforcement trends and developments, and what to expect in merger enforcement under the Biden Administration. Speakers will offer helpful antitrust compliance practices in the merger context for firms and companies planning M&A transactions.
Some of the major topics that will be covered in this course are:
- What to expect under Biden antitrust enforcement
- Protecting nascent competition is on the rise
- Close scrutiny of mergers below HSR Act thresholds
- Recent developments in foreign jurisdictions affecting deals with multiple filings
- Novel and emerging theories of harm in two-sided markets
- Increased scrutiny for financial investors
- Best practices for antitrust risk mitigation in mergers
