Japanese Fair Trade Commission

The Japan Fair Trade Commission (JFTC) is Japan's government agency responsible for promoting fair competition and preventing anti-competitive practices. It monitors businesses to ensure they do not engage in practices like cartels, monopolies, or unfair trade methods that can harm consumers or other companies. The JFTC enforces laws related to competition, reviews mergers and acquisitions for potential market dominance issues, and investigates violations. Its goal is to maintain a healthy, competitive economy that benefits consumers with fair prices, innovation, and choice.
