Israel's Antitrust Authority Probes Auto Market for Competition Issues
Israel's Antitrust Authority is conducting a comprehensive review of competition within the automotive sector to identify and address existing shortcomings. The authority has sent requests for additional information to car importers, aiming to scrutinize the relationships between manufacturers, importers, and sub-distributors operating in Israel.
One of the potential measures under consideration by the authority is the imposition of a market share cap for car brands imported through direct import channels. This move could significantly alter the landscape for independent importers.
Furthermore, the Antitrust Authority is exploring the possibility of limiting the duration of agreements between importers and vehicle manufacturers. Such a change could provide greater flexibility and potentially foster more competition within the Israeli car market.
