Natalia Pavlova and Andrey Shastitko

Voprosy Ekonomiki, 2014, issue 3

Abstract: The article focuses on the effects of leniency programs when the antitrust authority is capable of making errors in classifying agreements between competitors. The research confirms that the application of the program can impede the growth of social welfare by destroying and preventing horizontal cooperation agreements. The obtained results can help explain the peculiar properties of the cases that have been investigated with the use of the leniency program in Russia.
