Competition authorities all over the world monitor competition on markets. They increasingly rely on expert economic assessments of the impact on competition and consumers when they scrutinize commercial activity.
Securing Favorable Terms
In economics, competition is the rivalry among sellers trying to achieve such goals as increasing profits, market share, and sales volume by varying the elements of the marketing mix: price, product, distribution, and promotion. Merriam Webster defines competition in business as “the effort of two or more parties acting independently to secure business by offering favorable terms.”
Productive Resources
In his 1776 The Wealth of Nations, Adam Smith described it as the exercise of allocating productive resources to their most highly valued uses and encouraging efficiency, an explanation that quickly found support among liberal economists opposing the monopolistic practices of mercantilism, the dominant economic philosophy of the time. Smith and other classical economists referred to price rivalry.
