RBB specialises in providing advice on all economic aspects of competition law assignments. We offer practical and professional advice that is effective, concise and readily understandable to a non-economic audience. We draw on our wide experience of competition issues and institutions, and many years of working closely with Europe's leading law firms in cases spanning all sectors of the economy.

We have worked across a broad range of competition law settings, including merger, cartel, and abuse investigations, litigation, regulation, and restrictive agreements cases, at both European and individual member state levels. Our team includes economists who are fluent speakers in a range of European languages.

Where appropriate, we are able to apply both the latest economic theories and quantitative statistical and econometric techniques.

RBB typically advises clients as part of an integrated team, including external legal and other advisers. Our role within that team varies from case to case, depending on the requirements of the specific case, but our experience includes:

• Assisting in the assessment of regulatory risk by identifying the main potential competition concerns and developing the economic strategy to address them.

• Preparing independent economic reports and analyses. These are either submitted as part of the clients' main submissions or as stand-alone economic expert reports.

• Assisting and participating in meetings with the competition authorities, including the presentation of economic analysis and expert reports, and the defence of our work under cross-examination.

• Providing commentary on and input into draft submissions.
