欧盟《排他性滥用行为执法重点指南》修订介评

The Review and Enlightenment of the EU Commission's Guidance on Enforcement Priorities with regard to Abusive Exclusionary Conduct

欧盟《排他性滥用行为执法重点指南》的修订,反映了欧盟竞争法近十五年来排他性滥用行为执法、司法实践的最新发展。此次修订涉及的内容较为广泛,包括反竞争封锁、价格滥用、同等效率竞争者(AEC)测试、拒绝供应以及利润挤压等多个方面。修订后的《排他性滥用行为执法重点指南》,不仅迎合了欧盟竞争法目标多元化趋势下出现的新需求,同时回应了数字经济背景下欧盟竞争法执法、司法实践面临的新问题。因此,其对我国反垄断法的立法、执法、司法具有很高的参考价值。不过,此次修订也存在不足之处,例如部分核心概念尚未厘清,一些争议问题缺乏明确指导。我国需要以此为鉴,并在后续制定反垄断配套规则时予以重视。

The revision of the"Guidance on Enforcement Priorities"by the European Commission responds to the latest developments in the enforcement and judicial practices of EU competition law regarding exclusionary conduct.Its content mainly covers aspects such as anti-competitive foreclosure,price abuse,AEC(As Efficient Competitor)test,refusal to supply,and margin squeeze.The highlights of the revised guidelines lie in accommodating the new demands arising from the diversified trends of EU competition law objectives and addressing new issues in the context of the digital economy.However,the shortcomings include a lack of clarity in defining the core concepts of the revised content and the absence of clear and directional opinions on contentious issues.The revision of the guidelines provides enlightenment for China in dealing with new forms of monopolistic behavior.China should take this as a reference to enhance the certainty and predictability of its anti-monopoly regulations,aiming to create a stable,fair,transparent,and predictable business environment that contributes to promoting high-quality economic development.
