Alleged cartel in the market of corrugated cardboard sheets and boxes

Lear’s economists assisted one of the leading companies in the market of corrugated cardboard sheets and boxes in the proceedings before the Italian Competition Authority for alleged price fixing conducts. Lear developed an analysis demonstrating that the evolution of prices charged by the client was consistent with that of the main price determinants within the specific features of the Italian market, as it was affected by relevant structural events that took place in the market, which the Italian Competition Authority had not considered.
