Abstract
Since the adoption of the Law on the Protection of Competition and the Prohibition of Monopolistic practices number 3 of 2005 (‘ECL’), to date, the Egyptian Competition Authority (‘ECA’) has been focusing much of its resources on the detection and sanctioning of cartels. As a result, the ECA was able to prove 15 cartel cases during that period. Moreover, the ECA has been advancing its merger notification regime and its cooperation with different regional organisations and countries.1 This article explores the advances and developments of the Egyptian competition regime. It is also highlights main enforcement trends and tools used by the ECA. The first part of this article investigates the recent development in cartel enforcement in Egypt. The second section focusses on the ECA’s cooperation and practice with COMESA and Arab states. The section delves into the latest developments of such cooperation from an enforcement point of view.
