The AKZO Decision: A Case of Predatory Pricing?

Louis Phlips and Ireneo Miguel Moras

Journal of Industrial Economics, 1993, vol. 41, issue 3, 315-21

Abstract: In December 1985, a fine was imposed on the Dutch multinational AKZO for predatory abuse of a dominant position. An appeal by AKZO was rejected by the Court of Justice of the Communities in July 1991. This note suggests that, according to the facts reported by the Commission of the European Economic Communities itself, this is a case of active competition, not of predation.
