Award winning advice across numerous sectors
We have a long track record of helping clients to identify, mitigate and minimise competition law compliance risks through compliance programmes, audits, tailored training programmes, internal protocols and behavioural standards. More fundamentally, Ashurst’s competition team provides clear, practical and incisive advice on business structures and strategies across myriad industries and contexts: drawing upon the combined resources of the team in economics, business strategy, and industry and regulatory backgrounds – all designed to minimise compliance risk and maximise commercial outcomes.
Understanding our clients needs
We develop compliance training materials to reflect the particular concerns and fit the individual corporate culture of clients across numerous sectors. We regularly brief boards, and reinforce the importance of a top-down compliance culture. We work extensively with in-house legal teams to develop effective compliance programmes and clear, accessible training.
Providing tailored compliance solutions for our clients
As well as face-to-face training and written competition law compliance materials, our competition team has developed e-learning and highly tailored industry-specific training products focused on practically minimising competition law risks. We welcome our clients’ requests for continuous improvement and innovation in compliance risk management.
Preparing companies for the strategic management of a dawn raid
We work with clients to prepare for the possibility of a dawn raid, by providing tailored training for in-house counsel and senior management. Critically, we understand how priorities, strategy and necessary preparation have changed with the advent of the very high-speed electronic search software now deployed by most competition authorities.
