A guide to and outline of the general policies behind, and the main provisions of EC and UK competition law. It looks at how competition law affects business, including: co-ordinated actions; pricing behaviour; take-overs and mergers; and, state subsidies.
Competition law, at both the EC and UK levels, plays an important and ever-increasing role in regulating the conduct of businesses. Based on the premise that open and fair competition is good for both consumers and businesses, competition law prevents businesses from entering into anti-competitive agreements and from abusing their dominant market position.

Information is presented within a structured framework, complete with a glossary of useful terminology.
