As Mexico continues to emerge as an important economy on the international front, how can it best fashion its laws and policies governing business practices and access to the courts? What issues will the Mexican courts need to address under the new class action law? Should Cofeco urge the courts to adopt a price-squeeze theory of antitrust liability? And how might the resolution of these issues impact businesses and consumers in Mexico.

With Cofeco due to issue its final opinion in its recent action against Telcel, this panel will discuss whether the Ley Federal de Competencia Económica (LFCE – Mexico’s Federal Economic Competition Law) can or should be read to include a price-squeeze cause of action, the ramifications of adopting a price-squeeze theory of liability, and the impact of such a decision on businesses and consumers. The panel will also examine how antitrust enforcement in Mexico compares with other countries – what factors should or must be considered as Mexico moves forward? How should Mexico consider consumer interests? This panel was held during The Future of Business Law in Mexico conference on October 20, 2011.
