FTC Significantly Curtails Long-Awaited Changes to HSR Premerger Notification Rules and Procedures

The Federal Trade Commission voted unanimously to pass a final rule implementing significant changes to the premerger notification regime under the Hart-Scott-Rodino (HSR) Act. The Department of Justice concurred with the vote. The final rule significantly reins back the agency’s proposed rule issued in June 2023—a proposal that would have imposed substantial new burdens on merging parties and prompted widespread criticism. The final rule is still the most significant overhaul of the HSR premerger notification requirements in decades, and the new requirements will impose additional time and expense on merging parties, some of which can be mitigated by putting processes in place in advance.

The appellate decision is significant on several levels.  First, it is the first time in decades that either federal antitrust enforcer has succeeded in blocking or forcing the abandonment of a vertical merger after litigating to a decision.

FTC Rulemaking Pursuant to Biden’s Executive Order and Beyond: What is Settled, Not Settled, and What to Expect Going Forward

On July 13, President Biden signed the sweeping Executive Order on Promoting Competition in the American Economy, which contained 72 directives to multiple federal agencies aimed at establishing a “whole-of-government” effort to promote competition across broad swaths of the American economy. Many recommendations within that Executive Order called upon the FTC to issue new rules relating to consumer protection, privacy, and competition issues. Even before the Executive Order, several Commissioners and other commentators were calling upon the FTC to exercise its rarely-used independent rulemaking authority to issue new rules to address a broad range of issues.
