Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the various stages and methods of estimating damages caused by bidrigging. Emphasized first is the importance and essence of constructing a counterfactual scenario describing what would have happened in the absence of bid-rigging. Discussed next are the technical and practical aspects of the use of the various damage-estimation methods. They include: comparator-based methods, financial-analysis-based methods, and market-structure-based methods. The description of each method is accompanied by examples of their use. Finally, the article analyses the practical considerations related to the choice of a given method (among the range of various methods available) in the context of the availability of the relevant data and credibility of the underlying assumptions.
