Our State Aid Services
General Counseling and Audits
We perform thorough assessments to identify potential state aid elements and antitrust concerns. This includes your proposed investments, divestments, public-private transactions, and other commercial dealings with a public element.
Advising and Ensuring Compatibility
Our team provides clear guidance on whether your proposed subsidies and state aid instruments comply with Serbian and applicable EU rules. We offer legal oversight throughout the entire process, from applying to the aid-granting authority to notifying the Commission for State Aid Control (CSAC).
Clearing Proposed State Aid Measures
We help clear proposed state aid measures through the notification procedure before the CSAC. This ensures compliance and reduces regulatory risks.
Substantive Defense
If a state aid element is contested, we provide a strong defense to prove that no state aid exists in the transaction. Alternatively, we argue for the compatibility of state aid awards with local and EU regulations.
Protecting Your Commercial Interests
When unlawful or incompatible state aid affects your commercial interests, we advocate for your rights and work diligently to safeguard them.
