Amendment to the Swiss Cartel Act
On 19 December 2025, after lengthy debate, the two chambers of the Swiss Parlia-ment adopted various amendments to the Cartel Act (CartA). Despite numerous changes to the wording of the Act, this is not a major reform. On the contrary, it may raise false expectations and create uncertainty. The changes concerning the civil enforcement of competition law, however, are likely to bring about significant developments.
