Overview
Under the Monopoly Regulations and Fair Trade Act, unfair trade practices include refusal to deal, discriminatory treatment, exclusion of competitors, unfair customer inducement, coercion of trade, abuse of superior bargaining position, trading on restrictive conditions, and interference with business activities.
