What rules or principles govern the assessment of evidence in EU competition enforcement? This book offers, for the first time, a comprehensive academic study on the topic. Its aim is twofold. Firstly, it produces a typology of evidence standards in competition proceedings at the EU level, thereby systemising the guidance that is currently dispersed in the case-law of the EU Courts. Secondly, it examines the applicable evidence rules and principles with a view to better understanding their role in EU competition enforcement. In so doing, the book illustrates that evidence standards are not mere technicalities and their significance should not be underestimated. Rigorous and engaging, this work provides a much-needed analysis of a key question of EU competition enforcement.

This important new book offers the first systematic and comprehensive study of the way evidence is assessed in EU competition enforcement.

Reviews
Overall, this is a good, readable book which, due to its coverage, its focus and the approach adopted by the author, is going to make a significant contribution to this debate, both among academics and practitioners. -- Arianna Andreangeli * Common Market Law Review *
All these intricacies and the various red lines throughout the book are drawn together in a series of reflections that show not only the amount of knowledge amassed in this book, but also the ability to take a step back and indeed observe competition law enforcement with feelings of bewilderment, awe, and interest. Anyone interested in the workings of competition law in practice as well as on the more abstract level should read this book and contemplate the knowledge and reflections found therein. -- HHB Vedder, University of Groningen * Competition Law Review *
This is a very welcome addition to the prestigious Hart studies series on competition law. Both from a public and an academic perspective, the study addresses timely questions related to the most recent EU anti-trust fines and merger prohibitions. With the help of a systematic, far-ranging and detailed narrative of EU case law, Kalintiri develops a comprehensive typology for how evidence standards matter in EU competition proceedings. -- Gunter Walzenbach, University of the West of England * Journal of Common Market Studies *
