Operating Fairly in Digital Markets
Get to grips with the requirements and standards set by the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024.
Description
In three parts, we closely examine the DMCC Act 2024 (DMCC) and unpack the new standards and requirements that digital firms must comply with. Part one is about the new standards for large digital enterprises. We define Strategic Market Status (SMS) and the regulations where the CMA can intervene on their activity. The second part details the requirements for mergers and acquisitions, and is recommended for key decision makers. We detail the enforcement powers the CMA was granted under the DMCC Act, and explore its investigative processes, as well as the penalties it can impose for non-compliance. Part three details the standards and requirements of consumer protection and defines the prohibited selling activity that digital organisations must not undertake.
