Competition Enforcement – Views From Both Sides of the Channel

Highlights

At this virtual event, we are bringing together the CMA and European Commission to discuss recent developments in the enforcement of the competition rules in the European Union and the United Kingdom. We will focus on public enforcement but will also touch on private enforcement and the role competition agencies can play in it.

  • EU and UK – Friends or rivals? 
  • What can we learn from recent judgements in the Court of Justice and the UK Courts?
  • Private enforcement – How do competition agencies stay in control of competition policy?
  • What role for competition enforcement against Big Tech after implementation of the DMA and DMU regimes?
  • Looking ahead: what issues should competition authorities prioritise next?
