Global Merger Control Enforcement Risk: What You Need To Know For Your Next Deal

• Wednesday, October 11, 2023 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM

The U.S. antitrust enforcement authorities have proposed significant changes to their merger guidelines and to the filing requirements that parties to transactions that are reportable under the Hart-Scott-Rodino (HSR) Act must satisfy. These changes raise new complexities for a wide range of transactions, particularly regarding deal timing, the burdens of regulatory compliance, and the coordination of EU and U.S. merger review processes.

Please join our transatlantic expert panel on Wednesday, October 11, at 11:00am (EDT) as they discuss these extensive changes and how those interrelate with a growing regime of global filings, including new obligations under the Foreign Direct Investment rules and the EU Foreign Subsidies Regulation. The program will feature Covington's deep bench of former U.S. government enforcers from both the DOJ and FTC and leading EU antitrust practitioners, and will offer strategic insights for companies contemplating transactions in this increasingly challenging environment.

This program has been approved for 1.0 hours CLE credit in California and New York. We will provide a Uniform Certificate of Attendance should you wish to self-report in another jurisdiction.
