Governance for the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Bill - Disruptive Competition Project

UK digital markets have shown their dynamism in recent years, with markets such as digital advertising seeing significant growth among formerly smaller players. However, major new legislation is going through Parliament that is intended to regulate how companies compete in the digital economy. If enacted, the UK Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Bill (DMCC) will mean the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has the most expansive powers of any regulator globally to reshape digital markets. Its decisions over when and how to use those powers will have lasting consequences which could include significant harms, particularly in the event it intervenes in digital markets too early or too broadly.
