The GCR Guide to Life Sciences – Product denigration
Global | Publication | October 2024
Marta Giner Asins and Arnaud Sanz of our Paris office are the authors of a chapter on product denigration that has been published in the third edition of the Global Competition Review’s The Guide to Life Sciences. This chapter discusses a number of recent cases undertaken by the French competition authority that have progressively widened the definition of denigration and the standard applicable to relations with authorities.
Whilst the approach adopted in the life sciences sector is particularly strict, denigration decisions have also been adopted in areas such as energy or telecommunications. The authors address as well cases on denigration in the life sciences sector initiated by other national Competition Authorities.
