Competition policy is a field of economics and law that focuses on promoting competition in markets by preventing anti-competitive practices and market abuses such as cartels, monopolies, and other forms of market power. The goal of competition policy is to ensure that markets are efficient, dynamic, and fair, leading to benefits for consumers, producers, and society as a whole. Competition policy is enforced through a combination of laws, regulations, and enforcement actions by government agencies, such as antitrust authorities. The main objectives of competition policy are to protect consumers, promote innovation, and increase economic efficiency by fostering a level playing field for businesses to compete.
