Preguntas frecuentes
Predatory pricing is a deliberate business strategy where a company sets its prices significantly lower than its production costs. The primary goal of this anti-competitive practice is to drive existing competitors out of the market and discourage new entrants. By sacrificing short-term profits, the company aims to establish a dominant position or monopoly power, eventually allowing them to raise prices once competition has been eliminated.
Pricing below cost disrupts healthy market competition by creating an unsustainable environment for smaller rivals who cannot afford to match the artificial losses. While consumers may see lower prices initially, the long-term effect is often reduced choice and higher costs. Once the predatory firm successfully drives competitors out of the market, they can exploit their monopoly power to control supply and pricing without competitive pressure.
Predatory pricing is classified as an anti-competitive practice because it focuses on harming the competitive process rather than winning through efficiency or innovation. By leveraging financial reserves to sustain losses that others cannot, a firm can unfairly seize market share. This behavior is often scrutinized by regulators because it undermines the principles of fair market competition and can lead to long-term harm for consumers and the industry.
