Antimonopoly Regulation of Trading Activities: Legislative Novelties and the Most Important Enforcement Practice for 2023—2025 (Court Decisions and Acts of Antimonopoly Bodies)
EDN: XKUPVM
Abstract
The article considers changes made to the antimonopoly requirements of the Federal Law of 28.12.2009 No. 381-FZ “On the Basics of State Regulation of Trade Activities in the Russian Federation” in the period from 2023 to 2025, as well as law enforcement practice that has developed in this area for the specified period. Based on the study of factual material and scientific works devoted to the concepts of bargaining power and market power, the authors conclude that the improvement of trade legislation and the developing enforcement practice of antimonopoly authorities will contribute to maintaining a balance of interests of the participants in the relevant commodity markets, which seems extremely important in light of the instruction given by the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin following the XXVIII St. Petersburg International Economic Forum on June 18—21, 2025, on the development of a new national model of trading activities.
