Our webinar will discuss antitrust risks that can arise as companies grapple with whether and how to adjust their pricing to respond to tariffs being imposed around the world. The webinar is designed to give listeners an understanding of these potential risks, and best practices for companies to manage such risks and minimize scrutiny from antitrust regulators and potential litigants when developing their tariff responses. Our panelists will cover these key concepts:

  • The potential antitrust risks to consider when crafting a pricing response to tariffs, including for multinational companies doing business in the US.
  • Scrutiny businesses may face from antitrust regulators and private plaintiffs, and lessons learned in the wake of similar economic and pricing shocks in the past.
  • The legal framework for analyzing pricing decisions in response to tariff pressure under US antitrust law.
  • Practical guidance on what companies can do to minimize risk, such as:
    • Collective actions that may be allowed, such as political lobbying;
    • Ensuring and demonstrating independent business decisions; and
    • Compliance efforts.

Terminations, Stop Work Orders, and De-Scopes – The Latest Updates and Recovery Opportunities for USAID Contractors and Grant Recipients

In 2025, the U.S. Government’s policy statements and Executive Orders have had far-reaching impacts for government contractors and grant recipients. Although terminations, stop work orders, and de-scopes have affected private companies, non-profits, and universities doing business across multiple agencies, the U.S. Government’s policies relating to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has caused particular confusion and uncertainty relating to performance, compliance, and contractual procedure. Key questions have included the potential impacts of official and less formal communications from the U.S. Government, procedural issues arising from the move of certain functions to the U.S. Department of State, and the effect of various pending litigations. As businesses and organizations plan for 2026, the importance of preserving their rights and maximizing potential recovery opportunities remains paramount.
