BICSI believes strongly in competition. U.S.

antitrust laws are the rules under which our

competitive system operates. It is BICSI’s policy

to comply in all respects with the antitrust laws.

Association meetings or workshops by their

very nature bring competitors together.

Accordingly, it is necessary to avoid discussions

of sensitive topics. Agreements to fix prices,

allocate markets, engage in product boycotts

and to refuse to deal with third parties are

automatically illegal under the antitrust laws.

It does not matter what the reason for the

agreement might be.

Accordingly, at any association meeting

discussions of prices (including elements of

prices such as allowances and credit terms),

quality ratings of suppliers, and discussions

that may cause a competitor to cease

purchasing from a particular supplier, or selling

to a particular customer, should be avoided.

Also, there should be no discussion that might

be interpreted as a dividing up of territories.

An antitrust violation does not require proof of

a formal agreement. A discussion of a sensitive

topic, such as price, followed by action by those

involved or present at the discussion is enough

to show a price-fixing conspiracy. As a result,

those attending an association-sponsored

meeting should remember the importance of

avoiding not only unlawful activities, but even

the appearance of unlawful activity.
