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.

The Third-Party Perspective: Protecting Payors’ Interests in Antitrust Investigations
The Trump administration has sharpened its focus on hospital systems as a key driver of rising health care costs, and the DOJ and FTC are actively patrolling for anticompetitive conduct and mergers that contribute to these rising costs. Managed care organizations are a critical source of evidence in these investigations and are likely to receive Civil Investigative Demands (CIDs), be contacted by agency staff, or may consider proactively engaging with antitrust authorities to address competitive concerns in their markets.
