Antitrust analysis has changed significantly during the past two decades. For example, merger analysis may focus on unilateral effects or employ computer simulations, and monopolization cases may allege exclusionary conduct in the form of market-share discounts, all-or-nothing contracts, or bundling. Finally, antitrust matters are increasingly global in scope, involving multiple antitrust authorities.
MiCRA’s economists have the knowledge and experience to help clients navigate the changing waters of competition policy and enforcement. Many served as staff economists or managers at the DOJ, the FTC, the FCC, or other enforcement agencies. As consultants, our economists have worked with private parties, federal and state agencies, and trade associations regarding the competitive effects of mergers, pricing policies, and other business practices in a wide range of industry contexts. They have also made presentations before state, federal, and European competition authorities and have provided expert testimony in arbitrations and in federal and state courts. Cases in which our economists testified successfully include such high-profile matters as U.S. v. Microsoft, Staples, LePage’s v. 3M, and Concord Boat.
