- Als Grenzpreisstrategie bzw. Limit Pricing wird in der betriebswirtschaftlichen Theorie das Verhalten eines Monopolisten bezeichnet, der mit seiner Preispolitik einen marktzutrittsverhindernden Preis anstrebt. Hierzu senkt er den Preis eines von ihm monopolistisch angebotenen Gutes auf ein solches Niveau ab, dass für einen potenziellen Anbieter des gleichen Gutes der Markteintritt aufgrund der bestehenden Größennachteile wirtschaftlich nicht möglich ist.

- A limit price (or limit pricing) is a price, or pricing strategy, where products are sold by a supplier at a price low enough to make it unprofitable for other players to enter the market. It is used by monopolists to discourage entry into a market, and is illegal in many countries. The quantity produced by the incumbent firm to act as a deterrent to entry is usually larger than would be optimal for a monopolist, but might still produce higher economic profits than would be earned under perfect competition. The problem with limit pricing as strategic behavior is that once the entrant has entered the market, the quantity used as a threat to deter entry is no longer the incumbent firm's best response. This means that for limit pricing to be an effective deterrent to entry, the threat must in some way be made credible. A way to achieve this is for the incumbent firm to constrain itself to produce a certain quantity whether entry occurs or not. An example of this would be if the firm signed a union contract to employ a certain (high) level of labor for a long period of time. Another example is to build excess production capacity as a commitment device. It is important to note that due to the often ambiguous nature of cost in production, it may be relatively easy for a firm to avoid legal difficulties when undertaking such action. Due to this ambiguous nature, limit pricing may well be a commonly used strategy even in modern economies. However, it is often very hard to regulate, since limit pricing is often synonymous with a market monopoly. When a monopoly exists, it becomes very difficult to compare alternative prices with other, similar firms to confirm claims that limit pricing may be occurring. (en)
