According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Antitrust Advisory market size was valued at US$ 15752 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 22528 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 5.3% during review period.
Antitrust Advisory refers to professional consulting services provided to enterprises, investment institutions, and government departments regarding competition law/antitrust law compliance and enforcement responses. The aim is to identify, assess, and reduce competition law risks, while maximizing compliance feasibility and business certainty in transactions and disputes.
Gross Profit Margin Levels
Antitrust consulting is a highly specialized, knowledge-intensive service with human capital as its core investment. Its gross profit margin is significantly higher than general management consulting, but lower than standardized software services. Overall, the industry's nominal gross profit margin typically ranges from 30% to 55%, varying depending on the type of institution and project structure. Economic consulting firms focusing on economic evidence, econometric models, and damage assessments, due to their project-based nature and higher proportion of direct delivery costs (senior economists, data teams, external data procurement), tend to have gross profit margins concentrated between 30% and 45%. In highly complex M&A reviews, cross-jurisdictional investigations, and high-risk litigation, top competition law firms, leveraging their scarce experience, pricing power, and brand premium, often contribute even higher gross profit margins at the project level, reaching 45% to 60%. It is important to note that the profitability of antitrust consulting is highly dependent on personnel utilization, the ratio of senior experts, cross-regional collaboration efficiency, and project cycle stability. Therefore, during periods of regulatory cycle fluctuations or M&A market contraction, the industry's gross profit margin exhibits certain cyclical fluctuations.
Industry Drivers
The continued growth in demand for antitrust consulting stems from the long-term tightening and increasing complexity of the global competition regulatory environment. On the one hand, major economies are raising their review standards for mergers and acquisitions, expanding from traditional market share analysis to more complex dimensions such as potential competition, data and platform ecosystems, vertical integration, and post-merger exclusionary behavior. This forces companies to engage antitrust advisors for scenario simulations and strategy design before transactions. On the other hand, the normalization of digital economy and platform regulation means that companies no longer purchase antitrust services on a "phased" basis, but rather have a continuous need for compliance and response. Furthermore, cross-border transactions and parallel enforcement across multiple jurisdictions have become commonplace, requiring companies to have professional teams capable of integrating legal and economic evidence and maintaining a consistent narrative across different regulatory agencies. Coupled with the increase in private and class-action lawsuits and the board's increased emphasis on the "provability" of compliance, antitrust consulting is shifting from a "retroactive" service to a proactive and regular investment in corporate strategy and transaction decisions.
