Contents

Place in the Framework

Exemptions identify sectors, activities, or legal regimes where antitrust liability is limited or displaced.

Core Questions

  • Is there an express statutory exemption?
  • Is antitrust law impliedly displaced by another regulatory scheme?
  • How narrowly should the exemption be construed?
