Competition/Antitrust

Led by Nonnabhat (Niab) Paiboon, our Thailand competition/antitrust team is widely recognised as one of the leading teams in the field. We are at the forefront of regulatory practice and competition law and are well-placed to help clients who are subject to industry-specific regulation. We can advise clients on the full spectrum of competition work, including investigations, litigation, merger clearance, and advice on regulated sectors.

Merger control regimes have multiplied across the globe, with effective merger control strategy and its execution key to the timing and success of many deals. We partner with clients to identify antitrust risks and formulate a filing strategy at the outset, advising on optimum transaction structure, competition due diligence and guiding a transaction through competition and regulatory review to completion. Our team will help clients set strategy, manage risks and respond. We have significant knowledge in handling in-depth reviews and in obtaining clearances based on innovative commitments, together with extensive experience dealing with the challenges of managing merger reviews in nascent competition regimes.

Our competition litigation practice integrates our corporate and disputes team, providing clients with a seamless service in the event matters become contentious.
