Nowadays there is not only an increase in the number of cartels in Russia but also their qualitative transformation in connection with the “digitalization” of public relations. In this regard, efforts of the FAS Russia to collect evidence on new types of cartels are becoming more complex. To solve the emerging difficulties, the FAS Russia drafted a law project aimed at expanding its full powers, including authorizing the antimonopoly authority to seize documents and items. In the article, the authors carry out a comparative analysis of the proposed innovations with the authority to seize from other state authorities and give a critical assessment of the current version of the draft law.
