Expert opinion: Coordinated effects of horizontal concentrations
CARS has prepared an Expert Opinion devoted to coordinated effects of horizontal concentrations. The Expert Opinion contains a legal analysis of chosen problems relating to the review by competition authorities of horizontal concentrations with coordinated effects. The Expert Opinion was authored by Profesor Maciej Bernatt and Professor Agata Jurkowska-Gomułka. The legal framework of the analysis extends over the EU and the Polish legal system of competition protection (legal provisions, decisional practice and jurisprudence). The analysis considered the axiology of concentration control rules, the conditions of a prohibition of horizontal concentrations, evidentiary standards in decisions prohibiting such concentrations as well as judicial control over such decisions.
