Milbank LLP special counsel Mark Padley spoke on the topic of "Lessons Learnt from Recent Damages Cases" at CompLaw: Financial Services, held at the Crowne Plaza London King's Cross on September 29.
The conference brought together private practitioners, in-house counsel, economists and regulatory representatives to discuss key competition law issues in the financial services sector, including enforcement trends, digital disruption, open banking, merger control and consumer protection.
Mark's session provided an update on recent financial services competition cases, while exploring broader themes such as pass-on, damages quantification, the effectiveness of the UK class action regime and whether consumer protection claims are being shoehorned into competition law.
