In light of changes in the political landscape of many jurisdictions, enforcers will discuss recent developments and priorities for the coming year in all areas of competition law including mergers, cartels, abuse of dominance and regulation of technology platforms. We will touch upon issues such as whether regulation (emulating the EU’s Digital Markets Act) is the right direction for jurisdictions across Asia and globally; merger control enforcement in a world focussed more on industrial policy and protection from foreign competition; cooperation between regulators in Asia and worldwide; and the ways competition authorities can help create a positive framework for economic growth while protecting consumers’ interests.
