About

Provided by King & Wood

Whether in the Asia-Pacific region, or in Europe and the United States, regulatory and enforcement agencies are now strengthening market oversight, particularly regarding monopoly agreements between competitors, commercial arrangements between distributors and suppliers, merger filing, or abuse of dominant market positions. Businesses are more aware of the importance of advance planning to ensure that competition law compliance matters are conducted in an orderly manner and that they respond prudently to antitrust investigations.
