Is it the End for the Noncompete? 07/20/2023

Is it the End for the Noncompete? Hosts: Josh Shilts, CPA/ABV/CFF/CGMA, ASA, CFE. Shilts CPA, PLLC Nene Gianfala, CPA/ABV, CEIV, ASA-BV/IA, Chaffe & Associates, Inc. Guest: Jennifer L. Anderson, JD, Baker Donelson Jennifer Anderson joins Nene and Josh to discuss the Federal Trade Commissions’ (“FTC”) proposed rule to ban Non-Compete Agreements. What’s at stake is employers’ ability to impose noncompete agreements on their workers. Noncompetes are a widespread and often exploitative practice that suppresses wages, hampers innovation and blocks entrepreneurs from starting new businesses. Ms. Anderson provides in-depth analysis and insight on measures businesses can undertake to mitigate some of the perceived threats often understood to be ‘covered’ by a non-compete agreement. Nene discusses the potential impact on the valuation of non-competes from a financial reporting perspective, while Josh mentions the repercussions it might have on non competes in a litigation context.
