Initiative
Report any form of distortion of market competition. Any legal or natural person who has a legal or economic interest in it, as well as a professional or economic interest association, a chamber of entrepreneurs, a consumer association, the Government of the Republic of Croatia, state bodies administrations and bodies of local and regional self-government units.
Cartel
A cartel is the most serious form of distortion of market competition. Discovering cartels and punishing the participants is one of the most important tasks of the Agency. However, given that prohibited agreements - cartels are usually secret agreements between entrepreneurs, their detection is an extremely difficult and complex task. For this reason, information about suspected cartel existence in certain markets is one of the key tools for sanctioning cartel participants.
Notification of prohibited agreements in public procurement procedures
Regulations on the protection of market competition also apply to public procurement procedures, but only to entrepreneurs who appear as bidders in these procedures.
