What Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 requires

The UK Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 establishes a new pro-competition regime for digital markets by designating firms with Strategic Market Status (SMS) and imposing tailored conduct requirements under Part 2. It applies to digital platform companies with substantial and entrenched market power in core platform services, as determined by the Digital Markets Unit (DMU) within the CMA under Section 6. The Act also strengthens consumer enforcement powers and revises merger control thresholds under Sections 49-52.
