TERA’s expertise in cost modelling is both invaluable and indispensable for the missions it carries out. Our margin analyses are built on very robust scenarios and TERA uses production and market sales figures when possible for its analyses.
TERA assists all types of companies, organisations, institutions or administrations in the scope of all procedures to recover damages in all civil courts where parties are involved, either as plaintiff or defendant.
TERA’s methods comply with both the European Commission’s and civil court’s standards to determine economic prejudices by assessing the situation as it would be had the violations not occurred (anti-competitive offenses, unfair competition, or restrictive competition practices, etc. The difference between the situation observed and the counterfactual scenario is established via a temporal comparison (before/during/after the practice) and by comparing it to comparable market products, geographic markets (other regions, countries, etc.), or simulation based on costs, prices, margins, volumes, etc.
A European MNO filed a complaint with the Competition Authority about the exclusive distribution of a premium brand of smartphones to another MNO in the same domestic market, contesting that this constitutes an unjustified vertical restraint.
