The Judgment of the EU General Court in Intel and the So-Called ‘More Economic Approach’ to Abuse of Dominance – Wouter P. J. Wils (King’s College London – The Dickson Poon School of Law ; European Commission)

ABSTRACT: This paper discusses the judgment of the EU General Court of 12 June 2014 in the Intel case. It argues that the EU case-law on the use of exclusivity rebate systems by undertakings occupying a dominant position is economically sound, and that the criticism directed at this case-law is ill-founded.
