Extended access to electronic data for the Belgian Competition Authority The Belgian legislator has amended some competition law provisions in Book IV Code of Economic law.

EFTA Court offers guidance for assessing national limitation periods for follow-on damages claims On 17 September 2018, the Court of Justice of the European Free Trade Association (EFTA Court) ruled that national limitation periods should not make damages claims impossible or excessively difficult. Protectionisme: wat bedrijven merken van beschermingswallen Al enige tijd waait een protectionistische wind door Europa, ingegeven door de behoefte om vooral sectoren die raken aan nationale veiligheid te beschermen tegen ongewenste (buitenlandse) partijen. Gotta catch ‘em all? Upward referral of ‘killer acquisitions’ upheld Companies involved in intended or completed M&A transactions falling below EU and national merger notification thresholds should beware that their deals may still catch the European Commission’s eye. ACM is verplicht om het besluit waarin zij afziet tot oplegging van een boete te publiceren De Instellingswet Autoriteit Consument en Markt verplicht de ACM om een besluit waarbij een ernstige overtreding (zoals overtreding van het kartelverbod) is geconstateerd, maar waarbij is afgezien van het opleggen van een boete toch openbaar te maken. ACM geeft bedrijven meer ruimte om samen te werken voor klimaat- en milieudoelen De Autoriteit Consument & Markt (ACM) wil dat Nederlandse bedrijven meer ruimte krijgen om samen te werken op het gebied van duurzaamheid. Setting the Stage: the European Commission’s first in-depth FSR Decision The European Commission has published its first-ever in-depth decision under the Foreign Subsidies Regulation, marking a significant milestone in understanding the application of this regulatory tool. We identify important takeaways for future practice. The honeymoon phase of the Foreign Subsidies Regulation is over! Paperwork, paperwork, paperwork. The industry voices have been clear about the Foreign Subsidies Regulation. But what is the authority’s view? We provide an update on recent developments, including the European Commission’s first policy brief. ECJ accepts carve-out Italy in Commission’s Amazon Buy Box investigation The EU Court of Justice dismissed Amazon’s claim that the exclusion of Italy from the European Commission’s investigation into its Buy Box feature deprived Amazon of its protection against a parallel investigation by the Italian competition authority. European Court of Justice plays hardball in Sports rulings The rulings by the European Court of Justice (ECJ) on the discretionary powers of international sports associations to authorise alternative competitions show that the specifics of sports are no reason to tread lightly when applying EU competition rules. The vertical fight continues: two more cases on vertical restraints Companies should not take competition rules lightly in their supply relationships. The EU General Court's Valve judgment and the ACM's LG decision illustrate the consistent attention to vertical restraints. Belgian watchdog tackles bid rigging In recent cases in the fire protection and private security sectors, the Belgian Competition Authority has made the prosecution of bid-rigging one of its top priorities, imposing hefty fines on infringers for their participation in cartel schemes. Qualcomm falls prey to EU court’s predatory pricing ruling The EU General Court confirms that Qualcomm’s below-cost pricing strategy designed to eliminate competition was predatory. This judgment, the first of its kind in over a decade, provides useful guidance on predatory pricing practices. Sharing is caring? Commission can take over NCA probe The EU case cooperation mechanism does not create any rights for companies to have their case dealt with by a particular competition authority. Companies should therefore factor the dynamics of this cooperation mechanism into their defence strategies. Mayday, Mayday: Pay day! The Commission’s fight to avoid paying interest to Deutsche Telekom is over. The ECJ upheld the right of companies to receive interest on unduly collected antitrust fines, carrying a hefty price tag for the Commission. The ACM hits the ground running in its 2025 priorities The ACM will, possibly as a prelude to an upcoming New Competition Tool, launch market investigations into five sectors. Companies are well-advised to prepare for upcoming market investigations and potential solutions for identified market failures.
