State Aid and Foreign Subsidies
RBB has assisted a number of firms across a range of sectors in the area of State Aid and Foreign Subsidies, including the financial sector.
There is increasing emphasis on economic aspects of the assessment of State Aid and Foreign Subsidies measures by the European Commission. This includes the conformity of state investments with the Market Economy Investor Principle, the assessment of competitive effects, and the design of appropriate compensatory measures to counterbalance such effects (for example, in the financial sector).
We have unrivalled experience across the full range of issues presented by competition law and associated litigation.
