Essential Antitrust #41: Vertical restraints enforcement: trends to watch

Two years have elapsed since the introduction of new vertical block exemptions and guidelines in the EU and the UK. Since then, the European Commission has imposed the highest record fine on file for unlawful territorial restrictions imposed by a supplier on its resellers, in contravention of EU competition law. On the opposite side of the Atlantic, key developments in the US include increased enforcement of vertical restraints by US antitrust agencies. In this episode of our Essential Antitrust podcast, host Jenn Mellott is joined by fellow antitrust partners Charlotte Colin-Dubuisson, Meghan Rissmiller and Al Mordaunt to discuss recent enforcement trends in the EU, the UK, the US and Asia.
