SIGN UP

Businesses and consumers benefit from sound competition. Together with the
limitation of anti-competitive conduct, competition encourages innovation and
efficiency, enhances consumer choice, and helps reduce prices and improve
quality. Government policy and legislation affect and shape the competitive
environment. In the global economy, competition authorities play a critical role in preventing and correcting the types of behavior that can adversely impact the smooth functioning of the marketplace.

Join the ACCJ for a luncheon event with Mr. Kazuyuki Sugimoto, Chairman of
the Japan Fair Trade Commission, as he discusses the role of competition policy in the digital era—and the competition authorities’ role in promoting economic growth—in Japan and around the world.
