Merger Control in the EU and Turkey, now in its second edition, examines the legislative changes that took place in 2020-2021, including the reform of the Turkish Competition Law which introduced the significant impediment to effective competition (SIEC) test into the Turkish concentration control. Turkey, which is slated to amalgamate with the European Union (EU), has been following EU principles to establish and improve its merger control regime, as well as overall competition law, keeping abreast with changes in relevant EU legislation and case law. This first-of-its-kind book furnishes a description and analysis of the relationship between the EU and Turkish merger control law and practice.
