Trade regulation

Summary

Trade regulation is a field of law, often bracketed with antitrust (as in the phrase “antitrust and trade regulation law”),[1] including government regulation of unfair methods of competition and unfair or deceptive business acts or practices. Antitrust law is often considered a subset of trade regulation law. Franchise and distribution law, consumer protection law, and advertising law are sometimes considered parts of trade regulation law.[2]
