Anti-competitive conduct
The law provides stringent controls on conduct in the marketplace, outlawing or restricting:
-
Abuse of market power
-
Resale price maintenance
-
Cartel behaviour
-
Monopolies
However, while the ACCC is the market policeman, it does not have the resources to investigate or prosecute every abuse of competition law.
Maurice Blackburn has established its reputation as a market leader in pursuing compensation both on behalf of individuals and corporate clients for cartel behaviour through class actions.
