Throughout this period, the competent authority, the Fair Trade Commission has accumulated extensive case laws and interpretations in areas concerning sales price determination through monopoly, merger, consolidation, concerted action, various trade restrictions, false, misleading or competitive advertisements, multi-level marketing, enterprise' issuance of warning letters and goods' appearance infringements etc. Our Fair Trade Practice Group, led by Ms. Margaret Huang, has participated in representation of various types of cases and has extensive hands-on experience in various issues concerning the ROC Fair Trade Act (Taiwan). We also have had the opportunity to act as the lead counsel for international companies to handle their global applications for fair trade approvals.
