In October 2010 the Bundeskartellamt, the independent German federal competition authority, published for the first time a formal notice that sets forth binding quality standards for expert testimony provided by economists.2 The publication of these ‘Best Practices’ signifies the increasing importance of economic reasoning and methods in German competition law enforcement.
