About the Speaker:

Mr. Hammond was appointed as the Deputy Assistant Attorney General for Criminal Enforcement at the United States Department of Justice in 2005.  He previously served as the Division's Director of Criminal Enforcement since 2000.  He has supervisory authority over the Antitrust Division's domestic and international criminal antitrust investigations and prosecutions. Mr. Hammond is responsible for reviewing requests for amnesty under the Division's corporate and individual leniency policies and for reviewing recommendations to open criminal investigations or bring criminal charges.

In an interview with Dr. David McFadden, Competition Authority Member, Scott Hammond provided an overview of criminal antitrust enforcement in the United States addressing issues such as: international cooperation in detecting, investigating and deterring cartels; the Department of Justice’s Corporate Leniency programme and experience of jury trials.  This event was held in association with the Competition Authority and a transcript of the event will be available in early course.
