Federal Trade Commission - Enforcing Antitrust Laws

The video explains the role of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) in enforcing antitrust laws. The FTC is responsible for identifying and regulating unfair or deceptive practices that harm consumers and competition. It has both legislative and executive functions, issuing compliance rules and enforcing them. The FTC evaluates whether conduct is anti-competitive by assessing its impact on consumers, public policy, and ethical standards. If conduct is deemed unfair, the FTC can take enforcement action. Most antitrust enforcement occurs at the federal level, primarily managed by the FTC.
