Anti-Trust & Competition
The current Anti-Trust legislation of Ukraine covers a broad variety of transactions and business deals. Ignoring its requirements can lead not only to heavy fines that may constitute up to 10% from the annual turnover of a company, but also to administrative and criminal liability of the persons found guilty of infringements. At the same time disclosure of confidential information, even if such an information is disclosed under a request by representatives of the Anti-Trust Committee of Ukraine, may entail a number of risks that can be avoided, if a future business deal is planned competently. INYURPOLIS attorneys have substantial experience in Anti-Trust and Competition Law practice.
