Contents
Place in the Framework
Market participants are the firms whose sales, capacity, or competitive significance count when evaluating post-merger competition.
Core Questions
- Which firms currently compete in the relevant market?
- Which firms should be included because of rapid entry, supply substitution, or committed capacity?
- How should fringe firms, mavericks, and differentiated competitors be treated?
