Keywords: CADE, merger control, internal regulations

The Administrative Council for Economic Defense ("CADE") has enacted two new Resolutions, which were published on October 7th, 2014, in the Federal Official Gazette. They are minor, yet significant, changes to CADE's Internal Regulations as well as to Resolution No. 02/2012. The changes proposed therein resulted from suggestions received from Public Hearings No. 01/2014 and No. 02/2014, carried out in February 2014.

The proposed changes concern both material and procedural aspects, some of which directly impact the merger clearance procedures, and include issues that had not yet been sufficiently addressed by Law No. 12529/11 ("Brazilian Antitrust Law").
