CDC enables affected parties across Europe to obtain compensation for harm caused by competition law infringements. Our approach is straightforward: we manage the entire process from start to finish, assuming all associated costs and risks. In case of success, the affected companies will receive the lion share of the compensation obtained.
If your company purchased goods or services affected by anti-competitive conduct, you may be entitled to compensation. In practice, however, pursuing these claims is often complex, costly, and time-consuming. CDC removes these barriers by assuming full responsibility for claims enforcement and deploying its expertise to maximise recovery outcomes.
CDC designs, structures and manages the entire claim process, from initial assessment to final resolution. CDC´s model integrates: bookbuilding and bundling claims, legal and procedural strategy, data collection, economic analysis, litigation management, and settlement negotiations. CDC coordinates the recovery process for damaged companies, while assuming all costs risks associated with enforcement proceedings.
CDC identifies viable claims, assesses their potential value, and designs the most effective enforcement strategy across multiple jurisdictions.
CDC applies a rigorous approach to data and documentation collection, validation and processing, ensuring that all relevant information is properly structured, verified, and litigation-ready. CDC’s database architecture enables secure storage, integration, and efficient processing of large volumes of both structured and unstructured data.
Leveraging advanced economic methodologies and bespoke analytical tools, CDC quantifies damages with precision and generates actionable insights to support legal strategy. Real-time dashboards and reporting solutions ensure full transparency and effective case control throughout the process while robust backup and recovery systems safeguard data integrity and business continuity at all times. The quality and reliability of CDC’s approach has been recognized by both courts and opponents.
“In determining the overcharge rate, the court takes the regression analysis prepared by CDC’s experts as its starting point. […] CDC has conducted extensive and in-depth research into the various characteristics of trucks. […] Taking everything into account, Schinkel & Huberts [CDC’s experts] 2024 can, with all the uncertainties inherent in any regression analysis, serve as a sound basis for the court’s estimation of the overcharge percentage.”
District Court of Amsterdam, judgment of 15 April 2026
“[…] CDC had substantiated its claims much better than other claimants, amongst others by submitting several extensive expert reports and detailed information and documentation on a per truck basis.”
