The Warwick Economics Research Paper Series (TWERPS) from University of Warwick, Department of Economics

Abstract: In 1977 the Japanese Antimonopoly Law introduced the report collecting system on parallel price increases, i.e., price leadership. The substantial aim of this system is to encourage self-restraint with regard to irrational parallel price increase. We investigate some features of price leadership and then assess the regulation effects of the Law.
