Global Competition Review: FTC, DG Comp, and the British Competition Commission are the World’s Best Antitrust Regulars
A couple of weeks ago I heard Bill Kovacic speak about “The Role of Intellectual Leadership in Competition Policy,” and the need to persuade others around the world with the unforced force of the better argument. I have to admit, it was a bit of a “West Wing” moment, a reminder of how rare such displays of intellectual integrity and passion have become. But others are taking notice, too! According to the Financial Times:
The European Commission, Britain’s Competition Commission and the US Federal Trade Commission have been crowned the best antitrust enforcement agencies in the world, according to a survey published on Monday. The three regulators were declared the “elite” among 38 competition agencies examined in the latest edition of an annual survey by Global Competition Review, a specialist publication. Though the principal European, UK and US agencies often pursue different policies and cases, the lawyers, academics and economists interviewed found little difference in the analytical skills of the three bodies.Congratulations!
