Outside local counsel co-ordination in multinational merger control projects: in-house counsel experiences and expectations
Overview
The last year has been one of seismic shifts. Societies and businesses have been forced to adapt quickly to a vastly different environment. Changes continue to unfold in 2021, including in the competition law arena. This has brought opportunities for growth but also more friction and uncertainty to organisations and their legal teams.
This webinar, brought to you by The Legal 500 and ELIG Gürkaynak Attorneys-at-Law, was designed to provide general counsel and investors with a practical insight into the latest antitrust merger investigation trends, including enforcement activity and durations, to help companies assess the risk and timing of their next transactions.
The session also set out to cover the impact on M&A strategies of tougher merger control and foreign investment scrutiny; the importance of antitrust compliance given heightened global enforcement; and competition law’s role in supporting sustainability goals.
