Antitrust laws promote fair competition by preventing monopolies, price-fixing, and unfair trade practices. These laws ensure businesses operate ethically, benefiting consumers with better prices, services, and innovation.
Key antitrust concerns include market dominance, collusion, anti-competitive mergers, and deceptive practices. Regulators act against predatory pricing, price-fixing, and mergers that harm competition.
Antitrust laws vary across countries, with regulations like the Sherman Act in the U.S. and the EU's Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. As global markets grow, these laws continue to evolve to ensure fair trade and protect consumers.
