Malgorzata Krasnodebska-Tomkiel explains Balancing Enforcement with Advocacy: A Constant Challenge.

ABSTRACT: In over 20 years of its existence, the Polish Office of Competition and Consumer Protection has faced many challenges. Some were more tenacious than others, but in the end, only one appears to be constantly defying our Office. How to render our enforcement more effective, how to better detect and react to competition infringements? At the same time, how to prevent violations and promote a compliance culture? Balancing between enforcement and advocacy is and will always be our major preoccupation, one that we share with all other competition authorities.
