Morning Update

A Message From the Editor

Good Morning. The EU has elected a new Parliament, and we're looking at what a new competition chief faces and what may change for the trade bloc's tough antitrust laws. In Asia, two more prominent judges have stepped down from Hong Kong's top court. And The Global Lawyer notes that young people appear to be setting the political agenda and asks what this means for law firms.
