U.S. Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan on Friday welcomed that companies are weighing antitrust considerations early in their dealmaking process.

Lina Khan, the youngest person to chair the powerful Federal Trade Commission, has come down hard on monopolies and anticompetitive behavior, so some business leaders and Wall Streeters are nudging Kamala Harris to dump her if the Democrats win the White House.

Antitrust regulation isn't just about protecting consumers, Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan said Thursday afternoon at the Fast Company Innovation Festival. It's also about giving small businesses a fighting chance.

With Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump seeking the presidency, questions have arisen as to whether Khan would be compatible with either administration. It is unclear how either presidential nominee plans to address antitrust and consumer protection matters.

Isabel Casillas Guzman, head of the Small Business Administration, and Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan discussed the efforts of SBA and FTC to help improve the competitiveness of small businesses. SBA said Monday that Guzman cited the agency’s work to enhance competition in government contracting and small business lending.
