EU Drafts New Dominance Guidelines Targeting Rebates and Big Tech
Original: New EU Dominance Guidelines Target Rebates, Self-Preferencing and Digital Platforms
The European Commission is preparing updated dominance guidelines that focus on rebate practices, self-preferencing and the conduct of digital platforms. Legal commentators, including analysis from the law firm Skadden, highlight that the revisions would modernise how EU competition authorities assess abuses of market power, with particular attention to online gatekeepers. Businesses with significant market positions are expected to review pricing and platform strategies in light of the stricter approach.
Why now: Businesses and lawyers are reacting to proposed EU competition rules that could reshape how dominant firms, especially digital platforms, operate in Europe.
