- The new digital markets regime that introduces ex ante “pro-competition” enforcement regime
- Reforms to the mergers, markets and antitrust regimes introduced by the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act
- New merger control thresholds and new mandatory notification regime for digital companies with market power
- New guidance for assessing mergers and new merger investigation procedures
