According to the “What’s New” portion on its website, on February 1, the Competition Commission of Singapore organized a unique outreach opportunity: an exclusive movie premier of The Informant! to demonstrate “how the economy, businesses and ordinary people are hurt when businesses conspire to fix prices.” See the link to a video of the event here.

The 2009 movie is based on the true story of the U.S. Department of Justice’s investigation and prosecution of the worldwide lysine cartel. For more information on the real case, click here.
