Information Technology & Innovation Foundation's Dynamic Antitrust Discussion Series: FTC Rulemaking Authority: Toward Precautionary Regulations?
Webinar | 11.12.21, 5:00 AM EST - 5:45 AM EST
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently lifted many guardrails that channeled its rulemaking authority for broad swaths of the U.S. economy. With an expected increase of rulemaking activity, regulation of competition may increasingly shift from ex-post antitrust enforcement to ex-ante regulatory obligations. Intended to intervene before any harm is caused, these obligations suggest a precautionary approach toward market innovations. How should regulators use the FTC rulemaking authority in today’s rapidly changing markets?
C&M's Andrew Gavil will explore these topics alongside Prof. Daniel Crane of the University of Michigan and Aurelien Portuese, Director, Antitrust and Innovation Policy for ITIF.

As a “single source of truth” for products, DPPs may also enable EU authorities to identify non-compliance more quickly and efficiently, potentially restricting or preventing non-compliant products from entering the European market.
