Abstract: Anti-competitive agreements are a form of collaboration between companies, aiming to reduce existing competitive pressures on the market that lead economic operators to innovate and improve their offers in terms of asking price and quality of offered goods and services that result in harming the consumers' interests. This practice can take various forms and effects as alliances, anti-competitive arrangements, monopolistic agreements, cartel, and others.  The paper contains an analysis of the forms of anti-competitive agreements, their impact on the market relations and the form of their regulation. The article 101 TFEU contains the main regulation providing for the interdiction and sanctioning of anti-competitive agreements at the European level.
