反垄断法旨在保护公众不受竞争对手之间的协议影响价格或产品分销,同时促进公平和激烈的市场竞争. The Illinois Insurance Association (IIA) member companies, as competitors in the market, will always act in their individual, competitive best interests. When member companies meet at functions, however, 在他们的讨论中,对反托拉斯法的适用存在合理的担忧. 本政策声明和指导方针旨在就允许讨论的领域提供一般性指导.
Under the so-called Noer-Pennington doctrine, participants at IIA committees, seminars, 其他职能部门一般可以自由讨论个别或联合计划,以影响政府的行动. 这种反托拉斯责任的豁免源于第一修正案对言论自由和向政府请愿的权利的保障. 它保护有关广泛政治活动的讨论,包括直接游说, campaign contributions, media campaigns, testimony before governmental bodies, grassroots activities, and coordination of lobbying efforts with other trade groups. 维持豁免的关键因素是,讨论必须涉及支持或反对立法的计划, regulatory action or judicial proceedings through traditional lobbying methods. 虽然豁免适用于政治活动,即使这些活动具有商业影响, 它并不仅仅适用于商业活动,因为它们具有政治影响. Thus, 公司不得讨论影响政府机构的市场活动,也不得讨论市场对立法的反应.
In order to avoid antitrust exposure for the IIA and its members, the IIA has adopted the following guidelines for its meetings. 因为非正式的讨论也可能导致违反反垄断法的行为, these guidelines should also be kept in mind during coffee breaks, meals, social gatherings or other informal conversations. 以下问题是严重的反垄断问题,应避免在任何正式或非正式会议上讨论.
It is the responsibility of all members, staff, and officers present at this meeting to comply with the antitrust laws. IIA会议对与会者的最佳建议是,保持在正式议程范围内,避免任何与公司具体计划有关的非正式或正式讨论.
