Last week, members of the Global Advertising Lawyers Alliance presented the "HOT TOPICS IN GLOBAL ADVERTISING LAW" conference. The event was a great way to close GALA's Annual Global Meeting, which was virtual this year due to obvious reasons. 

The best part of it? The webinar this time was open to everyone (not only clients), with more than 500 attendees connected from their hometowns and having access to great content from around the globe.

I had the great pleasure of moderating the first panel on "Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Global Campaigns" with my amazing GALA fellows: Denise Mirandah from Mirandah Asia (Singapore), Geraint Lloyd-Taylor from Lewis Silkin (UK), Kanu Priya from Kan & Krishme (India) and Valdir Rocha from Veirano Advogados (Brazil).

The Ad Standard: Monthly Update - October 2026

Affordability remains front and center at the FTC. This month, the agency turned its attention to healthcare and gas costs. It also issued detailed guidance on price transparency for auto dealers that marketers in any industry might want to heed: the advertised price “must be the actual price that any consumer can walk in and pay,” with only government fees excluded. The FTC continues to consider how to combat scams and is seeking public comment on whether online platforms should help stop scammers who use those platforms to impersonate third parties by, for example, requiring the removal of confirmed impersonation scam ads.
