Review of the Commission's Investigations in Banking and Fuel Sectors
February 8, 2025
From 2015 to 2024, the Commission for the Protection of Competition conducted five investigations in the banking and fuel sectors without finding any violations. However, fines totaling around €1.5 million were imposed in other areas. The investigation process appears to be prolonged, sometimes taking up to 7 years. The director of the commission explained the reasons for these delays, highlighting the need for thorough legal analysis and careful procedures.
