Event Synopsis:
For the first time in a decade, the Department of Justice's (DOJ's) Antitrust Division does not have a major, cross-border cartel investigation to dominate its agenda. The global investigation into price-fixing in the auto parts industry has nearly wound down, and it does not appear that there is an investigation of of that scale and complexity to replace it. As a result, 2016 saw a significant decline in corporate and a decrease in indictments of corporate executives.
What does this mean for DOJ's cartel enforcement efforts in 2017?
In this LIVE Webcast, a notable panel of thought leaders and professionals brought together by The Knowledge Group will discuss trends in DOJ's cartel enforcement actions in 2017 and where they see the Antitrust Division headed in the future. Speakers will also help the audience understand all the important aspects of this significant topic and will offer helpful insights on how to ensure compliance with antitrust laws.
