The Slovak Antimonopoly Office imposed commitments on Slovenská pošta. This conclusion means that after four years of investigation and administrative proceedings, the AMO has proceeded to an amicable solution in the form of commitments and has imposed no fine on Slovenská pošta.
The AMO suspected Slovenská pošta of abusing its dominant position in the field of delivering bulk letter consignments. The practice in question concerned differences in discounts to individual customers. The AMO was of the opinion that these differences might have put undertakings at a disadvantage in competition in the field of production of bulk letter consignments. However, after having familiarised itself with the allegation and the file, Slovenská pošta proposed commitments concerning the conditions and discounts for the customers of Slovenská pošta. After testing, the AMO accepted these commitments.
Slovenská pošta was advised in this matter by a team of competition law experts of HAVEL & PARTNERS , namely partners Robert Neruda and Lenka Štiková Gachová and associate Tomáš Varšo. We are very pleased that with our assistance we were able to achieve a positive outcome for the client and its business activities.
