The 7ᵉ Journée luxembourgeoise du droit de la concurrence (Luxembourg Competition Law Day), organised this Thursday by the Association luxembourgeoise pour l'étude du droit de la concurrence (ALEDC) and the Chamber of Commerce, was supposed to focus on developments in a fast-moving legal sector. In the end, it opened against a backdrop of institutional deadlock that leaves Luxembourg in a unique position within the European Union: it is still the only Member State not to have a national merger control regime. A void that worries practitioners and which, in their view, is beginning to weigh on the legal certainty of the local market.
