Private Equity Antitrust Handbook, American Bar Association

There are over 4,000 private fund advisers registered with the Securities Exchange Commission and along with the United States, more than 160 jurisdictions that have merger control regimes. This handbook was written to examine the increasing importance for private equity entities to know and understand the complexities of the antitrust and merger control laws in the United States, as well as other select jurisdictions. The handbook is designed to be a resource for business people and legal practitioners, and as a useful guide at private equity firms understanding the potential competition issues that arise in connection with their business. It will also assist legal practitioners working with private equity firms in navigating the particular intersections of antitrust law and the private equity industry and the issues that can arise.
