Abstract

The legal rules toward RPM in China are undergoing a major change. Reflecting the classical disputes over the issues in major competition jurisdictions, the change highlights the importance of an effect-based approach. We summarize how RPM had been regulated in China under the jurisdiction of Anti-Monopoly Law. We also discuss the potential switch to an “effect-based” approach and the likely reliance on economic analysis in the future, through a systematic study of all the 45 RPM cases in China between 2008 and 2022.
