A new era for antitrust private litigation in Mexico

Mexico may be entering a new era for private antitrust litigation. With COFECE’s filing of the first class action in the country’s history for damages derived from a cartel, along with a related Supreme Court ruling holding that a decision issued by the competition authority satisfies the requirement of administrative finality without the need to await the conclusion of amparo proceedings, and with recent amendments to the Federal Economic Competition Law clarifying that in competition matters an administrative decision will be deemed final without prior judicial confirmation, the expectation is that the exercise of damages claims will become easier.

In this context, experts are asking whether we are witnessing the beginning of a new stage in the private enforcement of competition law. This event aims to analyze the current state and future of private litigation and class actions for anticompetitive damages in Mexico, as well as to compare these developments with international experiences in other jurisdictions.
