Acpera And What Business Lawyers Need To Know Right Away In An Antitrust Investigation, Robert Sanger
Robert M. Sanger
Just about every practitioner advising businesses needs to be up-to-date on antitrust law. It is all too easy for a person involved in business to make casual comments or engage in what they think is legitimate activity only to find that they are the subject of a federal or state investigation for horizontal or vertical restraint of trade or price fixing, customer allocation, bid-rigging, or some other form of technically prohibited behavior.

In our view, the desire to protect innovation is legitimate, …
Cartelization Through Buyer Groups, Chris Doyle, Martijn Han
Cartelization Through Buyer Groups, Chris Doyle, Martijn Han
Martijn A. Han
Retailers may enjoy stable cartel rents in their output market through the formation of a buyer group in their input market. A buyer group allows retailers to commit credibly to increased input prices, which serve to reduce combined final output to the monopoly level; increased input costs are then refunded from suppliers to retailers through slotting allowances or rebates. The stability of such an ‘implied cartel’ depends on the retailers’ incentives to source their inputs secretly from a supplier outside of the buyer group arrangement at lower input prices. Cheating is limited if retailers sign exclusive dealing or minimum purchase …
