Economic law

Defending fair competition between companies guarantees a competitive economy.

Highlighting the value of the French economy in a complex international environment is one of AFEP’s constant concerns. Fair, profitable competition in all areas (consumer rights, intellectual property, digital, etc.) is a guarantee of competitiveness and a major issue for AFEP, which it lobbies for in Paris and Brussels.
