Abstract

Moving away from the effects-based approach in EU competition law, the Digital Markets Act introduces renewed requisite legal standards that differ from probabilistic standards of proof. Ideally, this concept should also shape the European Commission’s initial enforcement actions and its judicial review in the EU courts. The paper critically examines the legal standards that the European Commission established in its first set of designation decisions issued in September 2023. It spotlights two significant actions by the Commission: the delineation of core platform services and the consideration of the undertakings’ rebuttals of the presumption of a gatekeeper position deriving from the application of the quantitative thresholds. The paper reveals a disjointed approach by the Commission building upon the idea of the regulation’s plasticity.
数字市场法》指定程序的必要法律标准
数字市场法》摒弃了欧盟竞争法中以效果为基础的方法,引入了新的必要法律标准,不同于概率性的证明标准。理想情况下,这一概念也应影响欧盟委员会的初步执法行动及其在欧盟法院的司法审查。本文严格审查了欧盟委员会在 2023 年 9 月发布的第一批指定决定中确立的法律标准。本文重点介绍了欧盟委员会的两项重要行动:核心平台服务的划分和对企业就适用量化阈值推定把关人地位的反驳的审议。本文揭示了委员会在法规可塑性理念的基础上采取的脱节方法。

期刊介绍: Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
