GLOSSARY TERM GUIDEBuild the complete exam definition
Learn the rule, separate it from the nearest distractor, then apply it to a Georgia fact pattern.
What does Antitrust mean?
Antitrust law protects competition by prohibiting agreements and conduct that unreasonably restrain trade, including price fixing, market allocation, and certain group boycotts among competitors.
How do you separate the nearest exam answer?
Competitors may independently choose similar prices or policies. The core violation in common exam scenarios is an agreement or coordinated action replacing independent competition.
What changes or stays the same in Georgia?
Federal antitrust law applies to Georgia brokerages and licensees. A local custom or trade-association discussion does not make commission coordination lawful.
Competing firms agree during a meeting that none will charge less than a stated listing fee.
No written contract or successful price increase is required to make competitor coordination dangerous.

GLOSSARY TERM GUIDERetrieve the rule under exam conditions
Answer before reading the explanation. Then explain why every distractor belongs to a different term.
At a local association lunch, several competing brokers each say they will stop offering reduced fees to investor clients, and everyone nods along. Nothing is signed, and no fees have changed yet. What is the risk?
- A
No antitrust problem, since nothing was put in writing
- B
Antitrust risk, since competitors coordinated their fees
- C
No antitrust problem, since no fees have actually changed yet
- D
Only an association ethics issue, not a legal problem
Antitrust law targets agreements among competitors that replace independent pricing decisions. A spoken understanding reached at a meeting can be enough, with no written contract or completed price change needed. Each firm must set its own fees on its own.
