Canada’s Competition Act has been called one of the most economically sophisticated competition statutes in the world, in large part due to the explicit recognition given to efficiencies in section 96. Join both the Mergers Committee and Economics & Law Committee for a practical nuts and bolts session discussing how to calculate and incorporate efficiencies in merger review. Our team of experienced panelists will speak to:
- Common approaches and techniques for calculating productive efficiencies.
