ALFA QUALITY MOVING WINS CASE AGAINST THE SWEDISH COMPETITION AUTHORITY

ALFA QUALITY MOVING WINS CASE AGAINST THE SWEDISH COMPETITION AUTHORITY

May 17, 2016

Today, Stockholm District Court ruled that Alfa Quality Moving did not violate competition rules in relation to two mergers in 2002 and 2006.

The Swedish Competition Authority (SCA) had challenged the five-year non-compete clauses in the merger agreements which they had found restrictive of competition by object. The court disagreed, making it the fourth legal loss for the SCA during the last 10 months.

Copenhagen Economics assisted Alfa Quality Moving with expert opinions and testimony regarding market definition and the proportionality of the challenged clauses.
