Abstract
Economic analysis is one of the key elements of the state competition policy system. The issue of the quality of analytical research carried out by the antimonopoly authorities has been topical and highly controversial for many years. Many scientific works have been devoted to the role of economic analysis in Russian antitrust, the most significant contributions were made by I. V. Knyazeva, A. G. Tsyganov, A. E. Shastitko, S. B. Avdasheva, A. A. Kurdin. This study proposes the stageization of the evolution of economic analysis depending on the processes of transformation of competition policy in the country, and, as a consequence, the development of the powers of antimonopoly authorities. The article outlines the prerequisites for a new stage in the evolution of economic analysis, due to the transition of traditional markets to a new business format — digital, the emergence of new markets based on IT-technologies. The new philosophy of market regulation requires fundamentally new methodological approaches to assessing the state of competition in them.
