Interpublic Group faces FTC review of Omnicom merger

IPG

M&A

The FTC is considering a political neutrality condition in its review of the proposed $13.25 billion merger between Omnicom and Interpublic, which would create the world’s largest ad agency with about $25 billion in annual revenue.
The proposed condition would bar the combined company from boycotting or withholding ads based on political content to prevent coordinated refusals that could restrict competition.
FTC chair Andrew Ferguson warned that advertiser-organized boycotts may be illegal under antitrust laws if they involve coordinated refusals to do business.
In preparation for the merger, Interpublic has begun centralizing financial functions and boosting investments in production and analytics platforms.
