• Resumen

  • The possibility to claim damages caused by infringements of competition law is recognized both by the Spanish and European legislation. However, despite of the increasing anti-cartel activity of the Spanish Competition Authority, antitrust damage actions are rare in Spain. A recent decision by the Spanish Supreme Court against the sugar manufacturer Ebro Foods for damages caused by a cartel in the sugar market partially corrects misconceptions of preceding judicial decisions on the methodology to calculate damages. The current article uses the Ebro Foods decision to present an appropriate economic framework for the determination of damages caused by antitrust infringements.
