**This edition updates and compares the competition regimes of Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, and Peru, incorporating regulatory developments and recent practices through March 2026.**
Garrigues and the CentroCompetencia (CeCo) of the Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez in Chile have published the third edition of the comparative study on the most representative competition law regimes in Latin America. This new edition updates and expands the review of the regulatory and institutional frameworks of Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, and Peru, incorporating key legal amendments, technical guidelines, and relevant decisional practices through March 2026.
The analysis systematically addresses the central pillars of each jurisdiction, including: (i) the structure and functions of the competition authorities; (ii) the types of anticompetitive conduct and the sanctions regime, with emphasis on collusion and abuse of dominant position; (iii) leniency or cooperation programs; (iv) merger control systems; and (vi) damages actions and other cross-cutting issues.
The document was prepared jointly by teams from CeCo and Garrigues’ offices in Colombia, Chile, Mexico, and Peru, with the collaboration of [Mattos Filho](https://www.mattosfilho.com.br/en/) for the Brazil section and [Pérez, Bustamante & Ponce](https://www.pbplaw.com/en/) for the Ecuador section.
According to Felipe Irarrázabal, Director of CeCo, “*this joint effort offers a harmonized, concise, and highly practical overview of the institutional pillars of the six jurisdictions*.”
The study, [available at this link](https://www.garrigues.com/sites/default/files/noticias/files/regimenes-de-competencia-latam_2026_en.pdf), was presented on March 26 in Washington, D.C., during the Annual Forum of Competition Law in Developing Countries – Latin America, organized by the CentroCompetencia (CeCo) of the Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez in Chile and George Washington University.
