Competition Law

In today's rapidly changing market conditions, it is critical for companies to build their commercial strategies on a foundation fully aligned with the rules of free competition. At OKAB, we analyze our clients' market power and commercial decisions within the framework of Law No. 4054 on the Protection of Competition. Our aim is to help businesses adopt a sustainable growth model that secures competitive advantage while remaining free of legal risk.

Preliminary inquiries and investigations conducted by the Turkish Competition Authority are sensitive periods requiring a blend of technical knowledge and legal experience. Representing our clients throughout these processes, we build a proactive shield at every stage, from on-site inspections to oral defense hearings. Through the economic and legal arguments we present against alleged infringements, we safeguard our clients' commercial reputation and financial assets.

Preventing legal disputes before they arise lies at the core of our modern approach to law. Through the 'Competition Law Compliance Programs' we design for company employees and senior management, we raise awareness across the organization. By preparing audit simulations and risk analyses, we align undertakings' day-to-day commercial activities fully with competition law, minimizing exposure to heavy administrative fines and damages claims.

Corporate restructurings and strategic alliances are often transactions subject to the approval of the Competition Board.

At OKAB, in addition to managing the notification process for mergers and acquisitions, we meticulously handle "Negative Clearance" and "Exemption" applications for vertical agreements, dealership structures and joint venture projects. In doing so, we ensure that operational processes are implemented on schedule, without encountering legal obstacles.
