The South African Competition Commission has invited public comments on its recent paper, “Competition in Digital Markets”. The paper discusses a range of topical issues, and sets out how the Commission intends to approach competition enforcement in these markets.

RBB Economics has prepared a submission, setting out some observations on the Commission’s paper, and providing certain recommendations on how competition issues in digital markets in South Africa should be assessed.
