On October 10, 2024, the US Federal Trade Commission issued the final amendments to the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act (HSR) rules along with a new HSR form and instructions. The rules are expected to go into effect in January 2025.

Join our antitrust lawyers for a discussion on the most significant changes to the HSR rules and how they will impact the premerger notification process.
