In our next Global Antitrust Update webinar our international team will unpack the latest enforcement trends and policy shifts shaping competition law across key jurisdictions.

We’ll begin with an update on recent developments from both sides of the Atlantic, before turning to two timely focus areas: (i) the growing scrutiny of below-threshold M&A transactions and associated “call-in” risks across Europe, and (ii) how economic expertise is influencing antitrust priorities under both the Trump administration and EC Commissioner Teresa Ribera.

Drawing on real-world cases and practical insights from our European and US practitioners, alongside guest economists Nicholas Hill, PhD of Bates White and Professor Kai-Uwe Kühn of BRG, our panel will explore how these developments may impact deal strategy, enforcement risk, and compliance planning.

Whether you’re managing competition risk in transactions or monitoring global enforcement trends, this session will offer a concise yet comprehensive overview to help you anticipate and navigate the next wave of regulatory activity.
