Partner Shaoul Sussman Featured in Reuters Coverage of Netflix–Warner Bros. Merger Review
New York, NY — December 12th, 2025 — In the article, Sussman discussed how recent reforms that he led during his time at the Federal trade Commission to the merger‑review process will shape the government’s investigation of the transaction. Under the updated framework, merging parties must provide more extensive internal competition analyses earlier in the review, a shift Sussman noted could materially influence the investigation.
“That will definitely give the government a leg up in the investigation,” Sussman told Reuters.
Sussman’s insights reflect his extensive experience in merger enforcement and the premerger notification regulatory framework that was reformed during his tenure at the Federal Trade Commission.
