Guilherme Oliveira e Costa is the author of the article “ Algorithmic ‘Collusion’ and the Application of Article 101 TFEU: Can an Agreement Exist without a Concurrence of Wills?”, published in Volume X of the Market and Competition Law Review.

In this article, the VdA lawyer analyses the growing impact of algorithm, particularly on pricing, and the challenges these technologies pose to competition law.

'AI-driven pricing algorithms […] offer significant efficiencies to firms and consumers, but also raise concerns about their potential to facilitate the implementation of anticompetitive practices.'

The discussion focuses on how algorithmic practices can align corporate behaviour, raising questions about the limits of the current legal framework.
