On 27 December 2024, the National Institute for the Defense of Free Competition and the Protection of Intellectual Property (Indecopi) published its annual auditing plan (PAF) for 2025 through Resolution No. 00193-2024-GEG/INDECOPI.
The PAF outlines the planning of the supervisory activities that Indecopi will prioritize throughout the year to ensure compliance with regulations under its jurisdiction at a national level. These activities include areas such as consumer protection, combating unfair competition, defending free competition and eliminating bureaucratic barriers, among others.
The following is a list of the main sectors considered by Indecopi in its PAF at both the Lima and Callao as well as macro-regional levels:
Lima and Callao
Macro-regional level
The prioritized sectors are not expressly specified due to the confidentiality of the research.
However, priority will be given to the following markets: a) those related to basic shopping basket goods; b) concentrated markets with entry barriers; and c) markets where there are indications of anticompetitive behavior based on the monitoring of public sources and/or informative reports.
Additionally, the PAF specifies that priority will be given to cases involving conduct subject to absolute prohibition (cartels).
The PAF specifies that, notwithstanding the aforementioned sectors, Indecopi may carry out additional unplanned auditing actions in response to evidence of possible noncompliance with auditable obligations that pose a risk equivalent to that of the prioritized sectors.
In this scenario, the timely implementation of compliance programs by companies in the sectors identified by Indecopi is particularly relevant to successfully face the authority's enforcement actions.
