DMCC Act 2024

Statute United Kingdom · 2024

The DMCC Act gives the Competition and Markets Authority a standing digital-markets regime. The CMA may designate a firm as holding Strategic Market Status in a digital activity and then impose tailored conduct requirements and pro-competition interventions on it — including, in principle, obligations around interoperability and data access. It also modernises UK consumer-protection enforcement.

Horizontal regime. It binds companies by what they do with data, software or customers, not by the sector they sit in. The industries below are where it creates specific, additional duties — not the limit of who has to comply.
