The Department of Justice (DOJ) has added antitrust compliance guidance in an update to its Evaluation of Corporate Compliance Programs (ECCP).
The guidance, issued Nov. 12, said prosecutors should evaluate how well a company’s antitrust compliance program handles issues such as “price fixing (including wage fixing and conspiracies to suppress other terms of price competition), bid rigging, market allocation, and monopolization, as well as obstructive acts that imperil the integrity of antitrust investigations.”
