Competition Law
Competition law affects day-to-day business, market conduct and major investment decisions. Jonsson & Hall advises companies on the application of the Competition Act, dealings with the Icelandic Competition Authority and competition risk in business.
Specialised service and experience
Our advice may cover, among other things, the prohibition of anti-competitive agreements, abuse of a dominant position, merger notifications, assessment of whether the conditions for exemption are met, and internal controls to reduce competition risk.
Jonsson & Hall handles dealings with the Competition Authority at every stage, including the preparation of merger notifications, dawn raids, and responses to the authority’s enquiries or decisions.
When cases go before the Competition Appeals Committee or the courts, Jonsson & Hall provides representation and advocacy, with emphasis on cases being prepared on the basis of their substantive merits and reasoned arguments.
Our aim is for companies to be able to operate with confidence in the market and for business decisions to be taken with a clear overview of their competitive implications.
Matters may include
- Merger notifications
- Assessment of dominant position
- Dawn raids and investigations
