Cartels

Deep expertise and understanding

Our pedigree in responding to cartel investigations and prosecutions stretches from the seminal EU cartel cases such as sugar, polypropylene and cartonboard, to assisting clients in the current swathe of financial product and benchmark investigations and prosecutions around the world. Our team has also assisted immunity applicants across global cartels, and worked successfully with clients to minimise follow-on litigation and class action liability. We have assisted executives personally, and advised boards in responding to whistle-blowers and investigations. This breadth of experience informs our work with clients in this increasingly criminal area of corporate conduct.

Experienced global team

Our global team has assisted clients worldwide in relation to cartel investigations and prosecutions in concrete, government procurement and tenders, car parts, high-voltage cables, vitamins, air-cargo, tobacco, construction and financial services and many other industries. Our team is now advising clients in relation to financial product and benchmark cases globally.
