The American Chamber of Commerce in Ukraine, jointly with a member company EVERLEGAL, is glad to invite you to the upcoming Knowledge Webinar "Tools for Reducing AMCU Fines: Leniency Programme and Settlement Procedure". The link to the webinar will be sent only to the registered participants.
One of the key innovations of the first stage of the Antitrust reform was the substantial overhaul of the leniency programme – the possibility of obtaining full or partial immunity from liability for infringements of competition law in the form of anticompetitive concerted practices (Leniency) – as well as the introduction of the settlement procedure in cases concerning anticompetitive concerted practices and abuse of a monopoly (dominant) position (Settlement).
Questions for discussion:
- Historical background to the introduction of the leniency programme in Ukraine
- Current leniency programme in Ukraine: key requirements
- Settlement procedure in cases concerning anticompetitive concerted practices and abuse of a monopoly (dominant) position
- The AMCU’s enforcement practice regarding the leniency programme and the settlement procedure during 2024-2026
- Future outlook: what to expect from the leniency programme and the settlement procedure
