摘　　要：轴辐协议是当前实践中出现的一种兼具横向垄断协议与纵向垄断协议表现形式的新型垄断协议。通过反竞争效果的实质考察,其本质是披上纵向协议外衣的横向合谋。该行为导致的限制竞争效果与消费者福利减损远甚传统横向协议,因此应对其适用相对严厉的本身违法原则。证明轴辐协议存在的关键在于认定辐缘合谋,对此可以采取间接证据初步认定与举证责任倒置相结合的判定方法。Hub-and-spoke protocol is a new type of monopoly protocol with both horizontal and vertical monopoly protocols.The essence of anti-competitive effect is horizontal collusion covered by“Vertical Agreement”.The restrictive effect of the act on competition and the impairment of consumer welfare are far more serious than traditional horizontal agreements,and the relatively strict per se violation principle should be applied to them.The key to prove the existence of the Hub and Spoke Agreement lies in the determination of the collusion of the hub and spoke,which can be determined by the combination of the preliminary determination of indirect evidence and the Reverse onus.
