Outline of Research at the Start |
This project aims to critically evaluate the debate on horizontal shareholding, which is the simultaneous holding of shared by investors in competing companies, and competition law.To provide a new perspective, this project suggests that empirical research needs to be done on active investors as this may facilitate to map the causal links between horizontal shareholding and anti-competitive effects. The project will focus on corporate venture capital. In doing so, the research can focus on Asia’s e-commerce and fintech startups.
