Anti-Competition Law
There are many aspects to anti-competition law, such as ensuring that company mergers or acquisitions do not create hugely-dominant companies that can destroy all forms of competition, and ensuring that competitors do not co-operate to eliminate competition by operating as a cartel. But the rules affect businesses of all shapes and sizes - it is not just large, dominant companies that need to comply. Relatively small companies can often find themselves subject to the rules if they are operating in equally small market sectors. It is always important to consider anti-competition law when entering into new arrangements with suppliers, customers or competitors, and getting us involved in the early stages of negotiations will ensure that we can ensure your business avoids getting caught out.
