COMMUNICATION FROM THE COMMISSION Guidelines for national courts on how to estimate the share of overcharge which was passed on to the indirect purchaser · European Union

| (82) | In some jurisdictions national courts may appoint economic experts who assist the judge when estimating passing-on and they have traditionally taken this approach to estimate the initial overcharge. The court may employ a similar approach when estimating passing-on, e.g. by using the so-called comparator-based methods. The experience from using court-appointed experts when estimating the overcharge may, therefore, also be relevant for the estimation of passing-on. An example of an approach where the court has appointed an economic expert is provided in Box 4 below.
