Now in it's fifth year, Cartel Risks & Compliance forum provides a first-class opportunity to identify commercial activities that create cartel risks and find out how to avoid these risks and enhance compliance.

During the course of the event we will examine new developments in cartel law and practice. 2011 hasbrought many EU judgments touching on all the “hot topics” in cartel enforcement:

  • When is the parent liable for its subsidiary and what does the Commission have to prove?
  • Can I be sanctioned for the same cartel twice?
  • What exactly is the Commission doing on fines?
  • How are my rights as a defendant (or as lenience applicant) protected?

Get up to date with current legal challenges in an increasingly complex environment.  
Key areas of focus will include:   

  • Cartel enforcement             
  • Fines
  • Cartel investigations     
  • Double jeopardy
  • Leniency
