About this page

This page presents the Japan Fair Trade Commission's report on antitrust law enforcement in the Kinki region for fiscal year 2019. The commission addresses price cartels, bid-rigging, abuse of superior bargaining position, and predatory pricing to protect fair competition. In FY2019, the Kinki office handled 10 cases under review, resulting in 9 formal actions. Enforcement measures include cease-and-desist orders and surcharge payment commands. Specific outcomes include one caution for abuse of superior position and 75 cautions for predatory pricing in alcohol and petroleum retail businesses. The commission applies cooperative problem-solving procedures when deemed necessary for promoting fair competition.
