  • The Department of Justice is probing how it can assured that Anheuser-Busch InBev (NYSE:BUD) and MillerCoors (OTCPK:SBMRY, TAP) won't hold beer prices high through tacit collusion following the merger between A-B and SABMiller, according to CTFN.
  • Tacit collusion involves discrete strategies to prevent competition rather than direct communication over pricing.
  • Some academic studies have indicated that tacit price collusion occurred when SABMiller and Molson Coors merged U.S. operations back in 2007.
  • The independence of the distributor network in the U.S. in a post-MegaBrew world is also being evaluated.
