Global Competition Review’s 1.5 day international conference is February 1-2, 2019.
Partner Olivier Antoine will moderate a panel called "Mergers in the Digital Economy" on February 1st at 2:00 pm.
Antitrust practitioners believe we have a modern merger review process, but the popular press is concerned that tech companies are too big. What does this mean for future acquisitions? The FTC hearings are considering whether different analytical or procedural frameworks are needed to address nascent competition. Are our approaches for addressing the removal of potential competition effective in today’s modern era? Are efficiencies more or less important in such circumstances?

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today
Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today: In 1997, the California Supreme Court decided Buss v. Superior Court. In Buss, the court concluded that a liability insurer that defended a mixed action could seek reimbursement from the insured for the defense costs associated with the claims that were not even potentially covered. Since then, numerous courts have held that insurers are entitled to recoup their defense costs associated with uncovered claims or causes of action. On the other hand, a significant number of courts have rejected insurers’ right to recoupment, at least in the absence of a policy provision granting the insurer that right. Some commentators have even suggested that the current judicial trend might be away from permitting insurers to recoup their defense costs. Is that correct? Has the Buss stopped? This panel of coverage experts will analyze insurers’ claimed right to recoupment today, and offer their perspectives on what the law on recoupment should perhaps be and might be in the future.
