CADE finds Brazilian Council of Architecture and Urban Planning guilty of price fixing
Access to information is vital in any organization, and at CADE, we take pride in providing transparent and accessible information to the public. As an agency dedicated to promoting competition and defending economic order in Brazil, we ensure that our structure and services are easily navigable and understandable.
Our history dates back to the establishment of the Administrative Tribunal, the cornerstone of our organization. Over the years, our structure has evolved to include key entities such as the Office of the Superintendent-General, the Department of Economic Studies, the Office of the Attorney-General at CADE, and the Management Office. Each of these units plays a crucial role in carrying out our mission effectively and efficiently.
Under the umbrella of CADE’s services offered, strategic planning is a top priority. By focusing on actions and programs that promote competition and regulate economic activities, we contribute to a fair and competitive market environment. Our content centers, such as CADE in Figures, legislation, publications, and matters like bilateral and multilateral cooperation, provide valuable resources for individuals and organizations seeking information on competition-related issues in Brazil.
When it comes to legislation, we adhere to the Brazilian Constitution, laws, internal regulations, decrees, and resolutions that govern competition matters. Our publications, including guidelines, economic studies, papers, and the Journal of Competition Defense, serve as valuable sources of knowledge and insights into the work we do at CADE. Additionally, the CADE Yearbook 2019 highlights our contributions and achievements over the years.
In matters like the Leniency Program, we emphasize the importance of compliance with applicable laws and provide template documents and guidelines for those seeking leniency. Decisions on leniency agreement cases, spanning from 2021 to 2024, offer transparency and insight into our decision-making processes. Statistics, images, and news updates keep stakeholders informed about the latest developments in competition enforcement in Brazil.
Our organizational structure, which includes the Office of the President, Administrative Tribunal, Office of the Superintendent-General, Department of Economic Studies, Office of the Attorney General at CADE, Federal Prosecution Services at CADE, and the Management Office, ensures that all aspects of our operations are efficiently managed and executed.
Service channels like case search, contact us, and report a violation make it easy for individuals to engage with CADE and access the information they need. By providing these accessible and user-friendly services, we strive to uphold our commitment to transparency and accountability in all our endeavors.
