Identifying and Stopping Unexpected Merger Review Pitfalls from Day One

Please join Mayer Brown for an interactive webinar series addressing global competition challenges in this dynamic era. In each segment, we will discuss how to measure and mitigate the risk of enforcement action and litigation you or your investment targets might face.

WEBINAR 2: Your merger obtained competition clearance, so why are antitrust enforcers still investigating? Identifying and Stopping Unexpected Merger Review Pitfalls from Day 1

Global enforcers are increasingly using what they learn during merger reviews to investigate parties even after the deal closes. These “side” investigations cover both:

• substantive antitrust issues, such as companies entering into improper employee “no poach” agreements or broader cooperation plans; and
• merger review process concerns, such as gun jumping, failure to make required filings, document deletion, and improper due diligence information sharing.

Please join our panel of lawyers for this instalment of the Competition Law webinar series who will discuss these global trends and offer practical solutions to help ensure your deal does not get mired in ‘’side’’ investigations.
