Program Description
Filing fees are paid by persons acquiring voting securities or assets who are required to file premerger notifications under 15 U.S.C. 18a, and the regulations promulgated thereunder.  The filing fees are divided evenly between, and credited to, the appropriations of the Antitrust Division and the Federal Trade Commission. The revenue generated from premerger filing fees (recently revised by Section 630 of P.L. 106-553) is available exclusively for antitrust enforcement.
