which federal agency reviews mergers and acquisitions, and challenges those that would likely lead to higher prices, fewer choic
Ainat [17]

The Bureau of Competition federal agency reviews mergers and acquisitions, and challenges those that would likely lead to higher prices, fewer choices, or less innovation.

The FTC's Bureau of Competition is the section in charge of cracking down on and preventing "anticompetitive" corporate activities. This is achieved through the application of antitrust laws, examination of prospective mergers, and research into other non-merger business practices that can harm competition. Vertical constraints, which include agreements among firms at various levels of the same sector, and horizontal restrictions, which involve agreements between direct competitors, are two examples of these non-merger procedures (such as suppliers and commercial buyers).

Antitrust law enforcement is shared by the FTC and the Department of Justice. The Department of Justice's Antitrust Division has the authority to pursue both civil and criminal antitrust actions, despite the fact that the FTC is in charge of the civil enforcement of antitrust statutes.
