Bloomberg Law Brief: Antitrust Worries Over Bayer Deal (Audio)

Jennifer Rie, a senior litigation analyst for Bloomberg Intelligence, and Harry First, a Professor at NYU Law School, discuss the antitrust implications of the $66 billion Bayer-Monsanto deal, which was formally announced on Wednesday. While the two companies' businesses do not overlap very much, the deal is another example of consolidation in the seed and chemical industry, which has raised questions from regulators in the U.S. and Europe. They speak with Bloomberg Law hosts June Grasso and Michael Best on Bloomberg Radio's "Bloomberg Law." Bloomberg's Karen Moskow and Bob Moon report the day's top legal stories.
