Leslie Marx hosts podcast on common ownership

August 14, 2024

Partner Leslie Marx hosted an episode of the American Antitrust Institute's podcast Ruled by Reason. She interviewed Professor Florian Ederer, the Allen and Kelli Questrom Professor in Markets, Public Policy & Law at Boston University's Questrom School of Business. On the podcast, Dr. Marx and Prof. Ederer examine the question "How Exactly Does Common Ownership Harm Competition?"

Dr. Marx leads a discussion of the theoretical and empirical background behind the theory of anticompetitive effects from common ownership. She and Prof. Ederer also address the mechanism by which common ownership actually leads to anticompetitive effects and the implications of these findings for enforcers, policymakers, and future research.
