Antitrust Legal Update

Overview

Antitrust law has been part of the American business landscape for more than a century, but the real risk for brokerages today lies in the gray areas (e.g., offhand comments, casual gripes, well-intentioned statements and service packages). Instead of rehashing the basics of antitrust law, this course illuminates the everyday decisions and conversations that can quietly turn into antitrust violations if you’re not careful. It revisits the core legal principles, then puts them to work in real-world scenarios to help brokerages build processes that keep their licensees well inside the lines.
