Philips România, amendată de Consiliul Concurenței

The Romanian Competition Council fined Philips Romania 5.181 million lei for obstructing an investigation by deleting WhatsApp from a work device. This action limited access to potentially relevant information during an unannounced inspection. The inspections aimed to clarify possible anti-competitive practices in the medical equipment market and were authorized by the Bucharest Court of Appeal. The investigation is ongoing, and the inspections do not imply any presumption of guilt for the companies involved.
