Abstract

In the economic law system, competition law constitutes an important part of them. As part of the competition law, the fundamental purpose of the anti-unfair competition law is regulating the market behaviour. Therefore, the implementation of competition law is directly related to the overall competition order, relates to the smooth operation of the market. In the scope of competition law, punitive compensation is in essence a special type of compensation mechanism, which has strong punitive characteristics, in order to punish some undesirable behaviour of market players. For the competition law, it is necessary to clarify the basic principle of punitive compensation and delimit the exact scope of application. On this basis, the feasible countermeasure should be explored according to the present situation of punitive compensation.
