Outline of Research at the Start

The research explores competitor efficiency interpretations within Japan and Korea's competition laws, comparing these to U.S. and EU approaches. It starts with a literature review on the As-Efficient-Competitor (AEC) and Reasonably-Efficient-Competitor (REC) tests. A comparative analysis will assess these tests' applications and the study expands to non-pricing cases for broader implications. Findings will contribute to global competition law discussions, potentially influencing East Asian legal frameworks.
