German Federal Cartel Office : New : Competition Register at Bundeskartellamt – Launch of establishing administrative team

Extracts from the website of the Bundescartellamt:

Andreas Mundt, President of the Bundeskartellamt: “Companies which commit serious economic offences should not benefit from public contracts and concessions. The Competition Register will enable contracting authorities to check in a single nationwide electronic search whether a company has committed relevant violations of law. Therefore the register can play an important role in combating economic crime and competition law violations. With this new transparency I expect the competition register to also significantly increase the preventive effect of criminal and competition law. The Act intends that our new division and the electronic register are to be operational in 2020.”

It is assumed that measures will apply to ALL undertakings concerned ( ie not only of German origin).
