Guide to Antitrust Compliance
Industry association meetings provide a lawful and important opportunity for competitors to meet and to discuss items of a legitimate concern to the industry. At the same time, association meetings can inadvertently foster informal discussions that could lead to conduct or agreements that violate the antitrust laws. ECC PerspECCtives attendees should adhere to the following general guidelines when participating in ECC Association activities:

·       No discussion or sharing of any company's confidential or proprietary information (e.g., purchasing plans for products or services, specific merger or divestment plans, market allocation, development plans, compliance costs, inventories/costs, etc.). Only publicly available information may be discussed or shared.
·       No discussion or agreements, either explicit or implicit, regarding prices of particular products or services of a company.
·       No forecasting of prices for goods or services.
·       No sharing of information that your company considers to be confidential or sensitive, even if that information does not fit in any of above categories.
