Quarterly merger control webinars: EU merger guidelines: A new era

Join our upcoming quarterly webinar, in which the White & Case global Merger Control team and two distinguished guest speakers will take an in-depth look at the European Commission's new draft merger guidelines, one of the most significant developments in EU merger control in recent years.

The panel will focus on:

• Efficiency gains under the new framework: What are the concrete changes, and what do they mean in practice for businesses and their advisers?
• New UK merger guidelines: The treatment of efficiencies under the proposed UK merger control guidelines: key changes and what they mean in practice
