Spanish translation of competition

  • competition: A situation in a market in which sellers of a product or service independently strive for the patronage of buyers in order to achieve a particular business objective, e.g., profits, sales and/or market share. Competitive rivalry between firms may take place in terms of price, quality, service or combinations of these and other factors which customers may value. Fair and undistorted competition is a cornerstone of a market economy and the European Commission has been vested with the powers necessary to oversee and enforce EU competition law to ensure effective competition in the internal market.

Such an obligation on the seller of the assets guarantees that the acquirer receives the full value of the assets transferred and hence is normally considered as ancillary to the main agreement.
