Concurrences

International Chamber of Commerce

The ICC’s initiative consists in an Antitrust Compliance Toolkit. The elements in the ICC Antitrust Compliance Toolkit are not intended to represent a comprehensive or prescriptive list of what an antitrust compliance program must include, but seek to reflect what is commonly regarded as good practice in the field. Indeed, antitrust agencies themselves recognize that there can be no “one-size-fits-all” approach and that each compliance programme has to be designed to meet the specific antitrust risks faced by the company in question.

In the current globalized economy weakened by the health crisis, this Concurrences’s initiative is ideal for developing and promoting of compliance antitrust.

The international dimension and the format of the event give an exceptional character to the image of the participation of many professionals representative of the ecosystem (lawyers, experts, public authorities, enterprises, etc.). The opportunity to experience a 360 ° view of the antitrust issue not to be missed.

For me, Legaltech’s innovation and digital solutions are both major elements and catalysts for an effective implementation in terms of compliance antitrust by bringing traceability, consolidation, confidentiality and security to enterprises.

Compliance should be in focus for competition authorities. Prevention is always better than cure. Therefore, the Antitrust Compliance Summit & Awards initiative is to be lauded.

In its 2019 guidance, the U.S. Department of Justice emphasized that robust compliance programs need to be forward-thinking: "effective antitrust compliance programs not only prevent, detect, and address antitrust violations, they also further remedial efforts and help foster corporate and individual accountability". Concurrences’ idea to reward innovative compliance initiatives globally is also forward-thinking and should be applauded. I am delighted to be part of the Steering Committee and look forward to seeing a lot of creative programs.

From being a fringe activity for the legal profession, competition law compliance has become a key pillar of good corporate citizenship over the last 15 years or so. So much legal expertise, business insight and creativity goes into ever-more sophisticated and bespoke compliance programs. It is about time to recognize outstanding accomplishments in this important field, and I am very pleased that Concurrences has given me a chance to support their initiative.
