In this conference call, David O. Fisher, Senior Counsel at the American Antitrust Institute, joined The Capitol Forum for a discussion on the Department of Justice’s proposed settlement with RealPage and its implications for algorithmic pricing enforcement. The conversation examined whether the settlement’s terms effectively prevent coordinated pricing through software-driven recommendations, the continued use of real-time competitor and owner-inputted data in pricing models, potential structural gaps that could allow coordinated practices to persist, and broader considerations for strengthening antitrust enforcement and oversight in digital markets.
