ABSTRACT
This chapter deals with the concept of an ‘enterprise’, which delimits the personal scope of application of CSME competition law.
Only entities that are enterprises within the meaning of the Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas (RTC) are within the personal scope of CSME competition law. Article 1 RTC defi nes an enterprise as ‘any person or type of organisation, other than a non-profi t organisation, involved in the production of or the trade in goods, or the provision of services’. Additionally, the meaning of an enterprise should be examined in light of Article 168 RTC, which lists areas excluded from the application of competition rules.
