Why Competition Law Training Matters
Even a well-designed compliance programme will not work effectively if employees do not understand how to apply it in their day-to-day decisions.
Competition law risks often arise outside the legal department — in sales, procurement, negotiations, emails, tenders and relationships with customers, suppliers, dealers and other market participants.
Training helps employees recognise potentially risky situations before they become regulatory issues and understand when a decision should be escalated to the legal or compliance team.
Our goal is to translate complex competition law requirements into practical rules that employees can apply in real business situations.

Who Should Attend?

  • Senior Management
    Understand which strategic and commercial decisions may affect competition, attract regulatory scrutiny or expose the company to unnecessary risk.
  • Legal Teams
    Develop a consistent approach to reviewing contracts, commercial terms, regulatory requests and potentially sensitive business situations.
  • Compliance Teams
    Maintain an effective antitrust compliance framework, update internal procedures and provide ongoing guidance to employees.
  • Sales Teams
    Learn how to work safely with prices, discounts, rebates, customers, dealers, commercial proposals and business correspondence.
  • Procurement Teams
    Reduce competition law risks in tenders, supplier negotiations, purchasing terms and interactions with other market participants.
  • Commercial Teams
    Assess promotions, loyalty programmes, rebates and new commercial arrangements from a competition law perspective before implementation.
Topics We Can Include in Your Training Programme
Competition law fundamentals for businesses
Role of Kazakhstan’s competition authority and common grounds for regulatory requests and investigations
Dominant market position and abuse of dominance
Anti-competitive agreements and concerted practices
Competition risks in pricing, discounts, rebates and promotions
Dealer and distribution agreements
Safe business correspondence and negotiations
Tenders, procurement and industry associations
Merger control and economic concentration
Internal and external antitrust compliance
How employees should respond to an APDC request, notice or complaint

The programme can be broad or highly specialised — for sales, procurement, legal teams, management, dealer networks or a particular industry.
