Competition and Regulatory

Competition and antitrust laws are constantly evolving, affecting a wide range of business practices, from interaction with competitors, suppliers and customers through participation in trade associations, to the structuring and implementation of corporate mergers, acquisitions and joint ventures. Regulation too continues to increase in its scope and application to businesses at the national and international level, particularly in key sectors such as financial services, media and telecoms, healthcare and energy.

Understanding how competition and regulation impacts a business is key, considering the risks of non-compliance. Companies need to ensure their trading partners are also fully compliant, and if not, that appropriate action is taken.
