27 Jan 2025 ECIT Account A/SECIT Account: DKK 20m as facilitator of a nightclub cartel €2.68m
The Sø- og Handelsretten (Danish Maritime and Commercial High Court) imposed a civil fine of 20,000,000 DKK on the accounting and IT service provider ECIT Account A/S. From 2004 to 2020 the company acted as cartel facilitator, formalising and maintaining an agreement among several nightclubs not to open branches in each other's towns or within a set radius, among other things through the chair of their joint purchasing company. It was the first civil competition fine imposed by a court since the 2021 legislative amendment; the Konkurrencerådet (Danish Competition Council) had sought at least 30 million DKK. The decision is not final.
Advisers and service providers that are not active on the market themselves are still liable if they organise or enforce agreements among their clients.
