  • notification thresholds and the nexus test
  • gun-jumping risks and review timetables
  • remedies and penalties
  • recent enforcement trends, including closer scrutiny of vertical mergers and option arrangements
  • the Israel Competition Authority’s April 2026 draft merger assessment guidelines
