In today's episode, we discuss a HOT topic on veterinary fees in the UK. The CMA has launched an investigation into the veterinary industry in general, and the narrative around costly veterinary fees (we feel, is unfair) and this is a vet student and new grad vet's take on the issue. *Spoiler alert: we are not in it for the money, we care and do our best to help animals everyday yet are misunderstood* Articles 12 March BBC news article on vet fees https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-68534697 Gov.UK CMA press release https://www.gov.uk/government/news/cma-identifies-multiple-concerns-in-vets-market
The UK merger control system provides for voluntary filings but that does not mean parties to deals can hide from the regulator, the UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA). But how does the CMA's Mergers Intelligence Committee (MIC) identify deals to ask about and review the informal briefing papers which can be submitted by parties hoping to avoid a full filing? Eleni Gouliou, a Director of Mergers at the CMA, who has chaired MIC, joins Anora Wang and Matthew Hall to discuss the work of MIC and its place within the CMA's merger review processes. Listen to this episode to learn more about this area of the CMA's merger control work, which is increasingly important now that the UK is outside the EU merger control regime. With special guest: Eleni Gouliou, Director of Mergers, UK Competition and Markets Authority Related Links: UK Competition and Markets Authority "Guidance on the CMA's mergers intelligence function" (December 2020) UK Competition and Markets Authority merger inquiry outcome statistics Hosted by: Anora Wang, Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer LLP and Matthew Hall, McGuireWoods London LLP
