Competition Law in Asia
Last Updated Date:   9 June 2009


4 Credits,  Semester 2

Course Description:
This course will introduce competition laws in Asia in a comparative way by focussing on similarities and differences both in terms of the substantive law as well as enforcement. After a brief overview of each countries competition laws and policies the course will examine three major areas of competition law ie prohibitions on anti-competitive agreements, abuse of monopoly power and anti-competitive mergers. This will be followed by an examination of additional prohibitions in some countries such as prohibitions on ‘unfair’ practices, abuse of administrative dominance etc. By the end of the course students will have a good grounding of competition laws in Asia and be able to advise clients on the basic competition laws of each country.
