Simpson Thacher was recognized as a 2017 Global Elite firm for the second year in a row by Global Competition Review in its annual report the GCR 100. The Global Elite recognizes the world’s top 25 antitrust and competition practices. The publication highlights Simpson Thacher’s deals that “required in-depth investigations and strategic divestures to win antitrust clearance.” Some of the work highlighted by GCR includes the representation of Ahold in its US$29 billion merger with Delhaize that faced FTC-mandated divestures before it could close, and the guidance of NXP Semiconductor in its “industry-shaping tie-up” merger with Freescale Semiconductor.
