Competition

We advise clients on a broad spectrum of antitrust and competition issues, such as: structuring of joint ventures, mergers and acquisitions, creation and operation of distribution systems, agreements among competitors and anti-trust claims against companies. Our services also cover the applications made to the Turkish Competition Authority.

We have experience and expertise in dealing with the following:

  • Achieving competition clearance;
  • Negotiation of undertakings or commitments – conditional clearance arrangements – with competition authorities where this is necessary to ensure that the transaction is allowed to proceed;
  • Drafting agreements in compliance with the competition legislation; and
  • Analyzing the competitive effect of potential transactions.
We also provide advice on local compliance and regulatory obligations of market participants in the increasingly complex global environment, including requirements with regard to public disclosure, investor relations and related party transactions.
