Summary/Abstract: The entire production and trade activity is performed with the purpose of obtaining the maximum profit desired. This profit can be obtained only if the interest of consumers is constantly maintained for the goods and merchandise that are produced, distributed and sold onto the market. The quality of products and services onto the market is influenced by the connection created between client and supplier. In economy area, the entire activity “gravitates” around consumers. This is the reason for which both the regulations in the domain of trade competition and those regarding consumption are preoccupied with complying with and promoting the rights of consumers. In this study, we will try to exemplify this preoccupation met at two young law disciplines, the law of competition and the law of consumption, vis-à-vis the interests of consumers, by underlying some provisions that targets them either directly or indirectly, as well as by presenting the institutions preoccupied with protecting the consumers from both the competition and consumption domain.
