For Trade Associations

A trusted partner
at every level.

When competition law infringements harm an industry, the effects are rarely limited to a single company. Entire sectors suffer — and trade associations are uniquely positioned to help their members respond.

Representing your members.
Protecting their rights.

Members of trade associations adversely affected by competition law infringements are entitled to full compensation. Yet navigating the recovery process independently can be prohibitively complex, costly, and time-consuming for individual companies. By partnering with CDC, trade associations can step forward as advocates for their members — providing access to Europe's leading antitrust recovery specialist without placing any financial burden on the association or its members.

CDC works with associations operating at both the national and European level, ensuring that businesses of all sizes — from SMEs to large corporations — have an effective route to the compensation they are owed.

Full-Spectrum Support, From Consultation to Resolution

Through its partnerships with trade associations, CDC provides expert assistance at every stage of the antitrust recovery process. From initial legal consultation and case merit assessment, through comprehensive data collection, rigorous economic analysis, to settlement negotiation and litigation — CDC manages everything.

If your association represents companies operating in a sector affected by a competition law infringement, we invite you to contact CDC for a free, no-obligation consultation. Together, we can assess the recovery opportunities available to your members and determine the most effective path forward.
