E8-6059 Business Opportunity Rule Proposed Rule The Federal Trade Commission (the "Commission" or "FTC") is publishing a revised Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to amend Part 437, the trade regulation rule governing sale of business opportunities that are not covered by the amended Franchise Rule. The revised proposed Business Opportunity Rule (or "the Rule") is based upon the comments received in response to an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking ("ANPR"), a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking ("NPRM"), and other information discussed in this notice.

The proposed rule also would prohibit other acts or practices that are unfair or deceptive within the meaning of Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act (the "FTC Act"). 2008-03-26 2008 3 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2008/03/26/E8-6059/business-opportunity-rule https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2008-03-26/pdf/E8-6059.pdf Federal Trade Commission 192 The Federal Trade Commission (the "Commission" or "FTC") is publishing a revised Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to amend Part 437, the trade regulation rule governing sale of business opportunities that are not covered by the amended Franchise Rule.
