This two-hour event is scheduled on October 13, 2016 @ 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM (ET).
Event Synopsis:
For the past years, loyalty discounts have been pervasive in many sectors. A loyalty rebate is "a price reduction given by a supplier in return for a customer committing to purchase a given percentage of its requirements from that supplier." Considering the anti- and pro-competitive aspects, loyalty discounts may significantly impact consumers and have lasting antitrust implications. Thus, rigid scrutiny of these rebates is necessary to effectively manage competition concerns and therefore, avoid possible pitfalls and risks.
In this two-hour LIVE Webcast, a panel of distinguished professionals and thought leaders assembled by The Knowledge Group will help the audience understand the fundamental as well as the complex aspects of this significant topic. They will provide an in-depth discussion of Antitrust Treatment of Loyalty Discounts in Europe and in the U.S. Speakers will also offer best practices in minimizing risks and maximizing loyalty discount benefits while ensuring compliance with antitrust laws.
Key issues that will be covered in this course are:
• Loyalty Discounts in EU and U.S. - A Overview
• Loyalty Rebates and US Antitrust Law
• Analysis of Loyalty Discounts
• Possible Antitrust Implications
• Up-to-the-minute Regulatory Developments
