Antimonopoly compliance

is a system of measures to prevent violations of the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan in the field of protection of competition. The Company has the right to accept both external and internal acts of antimonopoly compliance (Article 195-1 of the PC RK).

From 1 January 2017, the state register of dominant entities and monopolists was cancelled. Companies are under greater risk of being charged for antitrust violations.
