Excessive Pricing in Israel—How to Deal with A ‘Hot Potato’?

Talya Solomon and Iris Achmon  ask Excessive Pricing in Israel—How to Deal with A ‘Hot Potato’?

ABSTRACT: There is an ongoing debate whether and to what extent competition laws should regulate excessive pricing by entities with market power. Some jurisdictions, such as the USA, dismiss the concept entirely. Others, as is the case with the European Union, recognise the cause but place limitations on its enforcement, such that few excessive pricing cases ever go to court and fewer still are actually resolved.
