Competition / Antitrust

Regulators are taking an increasingly tough stance on competition / antitrust compliance. Failure to comply with the relevant legislation can lead to significant fines imposed on companies, criminal penalties including imprisonment, disciplinary actions against individuals, disqualification of company directors and serious reputational damage. In recent years, authorities have significantly increased the level of fines imposed on parties caught breaching competition law.
