Client Alert | 1 min read | 01.16.07

Today the Federal Trade Commission released its annual revisions to the jurisdictional and filing fee thresholds applicable under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”). The dollar thresholds of the HSR Act and Rules are indexed on an annual basis, based on changes in the U.S. gross national product.
