UK Competition and Markets Authority ramps up big tech antitrust investigations
Writing for the Centre of European Reform, Zach Meyers, senior research fellow at CER, said “if the UK falls behind in tech regulation, UK tech startups may prefer to grow in the EU, where the Digital Markets Act will make their lives easier.”
Meyers also noted that if the US adopts digital competition reforms, they are more likely to reflect the Digital Markets Act rather than the UK’s proposals, meaning the UK could ultimately suffer a loss of global influence.
