Competition is a vital mechanism of the economy, the Competition Council of the Republic of Moldova has a very important role in ensuring a healthy competitive environment. This encourages efficiency and innovation and reduces prices. Undertakings are also encouraged to offer goods and services to consumers on the most favorable terms. That is why competition policies must be known and understood by all those who are involved in the economy.
Undertakings need to know both the ways in which they can be protected by the law if they become victims of anti-competitive practices, but also what are the penalties they can receive if they decide to violate the rules. It is very important for the business environment, but also for civil society, to be aware of these regulations.
The event was attended by the most important lecturers in the field who shared their experience on topics such as: Competitive situation in the Republic of Moldova in the conditions of current challenges, Competition as a vital mechanism for the proper functioning of the economy of the Republic of Moldova, Leniency policy, Scope and conditions of application, Commitments – exceptional procedure on the rapid restoration of the environment competition, What have been the most dynamic sectors in terms of competition in the past year?
