Consistent with recent years, global enforcement authorities remained extremely active in 2017, opening many new investigations and advancing others. Despite this activity, fines were significantly lower in 2017 than in recent years, as several major investigations concluded and other major investigations remain at early stages.

Join us for a webinar discussing the key trends in antitrust compliance programs and antitrust criminal liability.

Topics will include:

  • Overview of global enforcement trends in 2017
  • Review of cases impacting antitrust enforcement issues
  • Increasing enforcement in Asia
  • Expansion of global authorities’ extraterritorial jurisdiction
  • Industries under scrutiny
  • Leniency program policies
  • Whistleblower protections
  • Criminal prosecutions pending for “no poaching” agreements
