Steiger Award in 2017. Mr. Nagley also led several merger investigations that resulted in the parties abandoning their transactions and negotiated settlements requiring significant divestitures. Mr. Nagley represented the FTC in coordinated investigations with competition officials in the offices of numerous state attorneys general, the European Commission and China’s MOFCOM.
