Summary

This chapter studies the balancing function of Article 101(3) TFEU individual exemptions/exceptions. It reveals a great divergence in the frequency with which the Commission, national competition authorities, and EU and national courts have invoked and accepted the Article 101(3) TFEU, as well as their interpretations of the types of relevant benefits, the balancing process, and the intensity of control. Moreover, it uncovers the ‘death’ of Article 101(3) TFEU defence in the Commission’s practice following modernisation.
