In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, state intervention has increased at a rapid pace and taken many guises in the UK and beyond. State intervention often presents real risks for commercial players in a market. These range from distorting pricing  to measures as serious as the threat of nationalisation of a business. The impact on businesses and their  future strategies can therefore be significant.

In the event that your business is negatively impacted by a state intervention, are you aware of the tools and tactics available to attempt to mitigate the effects or challenge the intervention? Too often focus may be on domestic remedies, rather than taking full advantage of all available national and international tools to maximise your position.

Join us for a lively discussion based around a case study which will explore the key issues and trends in respect of state intervention and how best to protect your business’s position using a myriad of tools.
