Dominance with 15 Percent of Market Share?
Posted by D. Daniel Sokol
The Russian Federal Anti-Monopoly Service has proposed amendments to its Trade Act (antitrust law). According to its press release:
Currently FAS Russia has developed some amendments to the Trade Act, changing the market
dominance threshold for trading organizations from 35% to 15%. Also it will introduce special
collective dominance thresholds.
I am unaware of any country with a dominance threshold as low as 15 percent. Is this a new low for what a "dominant" firm might be?
HT to Charles Hoffman of Axinn Veltrop.

It seems they want to (re)impose price regulations and in order to do so lower the market share. Election season in Russia
