Industry world-wide loses billions of dollars every year to counterfeiters. These costs impact on
victim countries in a number of different ways. First of all, industries which find themselves in direct
competition with counterfeiters suffer a direct loss in sales. Indeed, some markets are even dominated by
counterfeiters, creating barriers of entry for the producers of the genuine product. Some would argue that the
buyers of the fakes would not have bought the genuine item but that is a very narrow argument and can only
apply to a small segment of luxury goods. Many counterfeit products today are of higher quality and
compete directly with the genuine items.
In addition, consumers who are deceived into believing that they bought a genuine article when it
was in fact a fake, blame the manufacturer of the genuine product when it fails, creating a loss of goodwill.
Even cheaper and obvious copies that are bought in good faith represent a serious threat to the company that
wants its brands associated with quality and exclusivity.
Thirdly, beside direct losses of sales and goodwill, one should not forget the expenditure involved
in protecting and enforcing intellectual property rights. The right owner becomes involved in costly
investigations and litigation when combating counterfeiters and may also have to spend further sums on
product protection. The budget for anti-counterfeiting is rarely well defined within an organisation, but
spans across several departments such as marketing, human resources, product development and legal
departments.
