Businesses need to be advised on how to best conduct their activities within the UK and EC rules of competition, while still achieving their commercial goals. The complex nature of the law does not make this an easy task.
This practical and accessible work explains the legislation governing competition under both UK and EC law. Divided into three sections the book deals comprehensively with: EC and UK anti-competitive agreements; EC and UK unilateral anti-competitive practices (including abuse of dominant position and monopoly behaviour); EC and UK mergers.
In each section the law, procedure, penalties and enforcement measures are analysed and discussed in full. The author also highlights the differences in approach between the two systems, by providing comparisons of the EC and UK law and practice in respect of each topic.
* An in-depth treatment of UK and European competition law and practice
* Includes key legislation
* Written by a specialist in European and commercial law
* Practitioners can compare the law, procedure and penalties in this area between Europe and UK
