UK Competition Regime: A Practitioner’s Guide, covers all aspects of competition law, including detailed treatment of procedure, coverage of recent developments, with a focus on guidance for practitioners. It includes an overview of the role of economics.

The second edition covers how Brexit has led to UK agencies finding themselves free to pursue cases and policy objectives in their own way, while legislation has brought in new powers and procedures, including:

  • The new digital markets regime that introduces ex ante “pro-competition” enforcement regime
  • Reforms to the mergers, markets and antitrust regimes introduced by the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act
  • New merger control thresholds and new mandatory notification regime for digital companies with market power
  • New guidance for assessing mergers and new merger investigation procedures
  • The introduction of UK Block Exemptions and guidance on anticompetitive agreements
  • The growth of “class-action” litigation in competition cases
