Abstract
The article reviews and assesses the institutional (legal) and economic framework for merger control and competition policy in Slovenia. We investigate the functioning of the Slovenian Competition Protection Office. We also discuss possible reasons for the small number of denied mergers, with accession to the EU and the openness of the economy being the most important. Further, we use three case studies to illustrate that the unfinished transition process allows a possibility for political interference in merging activities.
