For over 35 years, FTC:WATCH has been the nation’s leading independent newsletter focused on antitrust and consumer protection enforcement developments at the national, international and local levels.

With an emphasis on advance news, political analysis and investigative reporting, FTC:WATCH covers not only the policies, programs and personnel of the Bureaus of Competition and Consumer Protection at the Federal Trade Commission, but also the civil and criminal investigations at the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice; competition and consumer protection activities of state and local governments; and, increasingly, antitrust enforcement actions by foreign entities including the European Commission.

Founded in 1976 by two former FTC staff members, FTC:WATCH has been recognized by the Washington Post as the “Bible” of antitrust trade journals, and its editors and reporters have been praised for their influence and investigative reporting by the likes of the National Journal and the Columbia Journalism Review.

FTC:WATCH’s national and international subscribers include virtually every member of the American Lawyer’s list of top 100 firms, as well as premier class action plaintiff’s firms, national trade associations, the Federal Trade Commission, the Department of Justice, Senate and House subcommittees, universities, think tanks, and state offices of Attorneys General.

FTC:WATCH is published 22 times a year — twice a month except in August when Northern Hemisphere governments leave town — and is available in a traditional, paper version mailed First Class in the U.S. and electronically as a PDF sent by-email in the U.S. and overseas.
