Mark has extensive experience and a depth of knowledge in all aspects of competition regulation (both in South Africa and north of our borders), including behavioural work (cartels and leniency applications, vertical relationships and dominance) and merger regulation (transaction structures, merger clearances, hostile takeovers and negotiating conditions). His proficiency extends to complex competition litigation in South Africa and on the continent.

Mark has worked on some of the most important and high-profile South African competition law cases, as well as in other African competition law and policy regimes (including various national and regional competition regulators).
