Competition

In Brazil and worldwide, competition between companies has intensified, which has led to stricter enforcement of corporate conduct and sophistication of antitrust laws by competition authorities. Given the risk of being penalized for anti-competitive practices, it is increasingly necessary to pay attention to current legislation, both in daily commercial practices and in complex operations that may result in market concentration.
