Global rules on foreign direct investment (FDI)
Cross-border acquisitions and investments increasingly trigger foreign direct investment (FDI) screening requirements.
United States | Publication | January 2020
Until recently the Federal Trade Commission’s ability to seek monetary equitable remedies (particularly disgorgement and restitution) for alleged antitrust violations— whether ongoing, impending, or stale—went virtually unchallenged. After it first gained statutory authority under Section 13(b) of the FTC Act to bring suit in federal district court to preliminarily enjoin conduct that “is violating, or is about to violate” the antitrust laws, the FTC successfully convinced many federal courts that Section 13(b) also impliedly allowed the FTC to seek standalone permanent injunctions and monetary equitable remedies regardless of whether a defendant’s alleged anticompetitive conduct was ongoing or completed long ago.
