How Do Lower HSR Thresholds Affect Your Clients’ Open Deals?

Hart-Scott-Rodino (HSR) thresholds change every year based on changes to gross national product (GNP). In most years, GNP increases, so HSR thresholds increase. However, this past year, GNP decreased, so the HSR thresholds will decrease. Therefore, transactions that have not yet closed and that may not have been reportable under the current thresholds, may be reportable under the thresholds that will take effect in early March. This article discusses your clients’ options if they have open transactions.
