중소기업의 부당공동행위 유형과 정책시사점 = Analysis on Types of Small and Medium Sized Enterprises’ Unfair Common Actions and Policy Implications

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

There is a limit to the common actions of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs). This is because the current Fair Trade Act strictly regulates common actions that infringe on consumer interests. This study aims to analyze the impact of SMEs’ unfair common action on social welfare and find policy implications for revitalizing SMEs’ common action. Unfair common action occurs in limited competitive markets with a small number of suppliers. The restricted competitive bidding method should be converted to general competitive bidding to block unfair common action and to eliminate the barriers to market entry. This should give new companies a chance. When evaluating performance capability, the delivery performance should be excluded so that new companies do not suffer disadvantages, and the market should be devoted to new companies for about 30% of the total volume.
In addition, public institutions, monopsonists, must change the method of calculating the estimated price. There are many limited lowest-priced bidding methods for monopsonists because they do not consider quality much when targeting SMEs. Therefore, SMEs participating in such bids are inevitable to have a bleeding competition. In order to prevent bleeding competition between companies rather than simply the lowest-priced bidding method, the planned amount should be calculated in consideration of costs and appropriate profits. Also, in the monopsonistic market, it is important to calculate the estimated price comparable to that of the competitive market, because social welfare increases when the price increases.
