Senior Competition Expert, OECD

Sabine Zigelski is Senior Competition Expert at the OECD Competition Division in Paris. Since 2013, she is responsible for the OECD-GVH Regional Centre for Competition in Budapest (RCC), which provides competition law training seminars to its beneficiaries – officials from competition authorities from 18 jurisdictions in East and South-East Europe.

She supports the wider work of the OECD Competition Division, works on peer reviews, background papers, conducts trainings on bid rigging and competition assessment, and represents the Competition Division as a speaker on international conferences.

She regularly lectures on vertical restraints at the Florence Competition Programme. Before joining the OECD, Sabine worked for more than 20 years as a senior case manager at the German competition authority, the Bundeskartellamt. This provided her with extensive experience in merger control, cartel prosecution and abuse of dominance proceedings in a variety of industry sectors.
