Imported from official source

Finance Classified by Officially

  • CMA publishes its provisional decision in relation to keeping or removing 33 market remedies
  • CMA is committed to ensuring its remedies remain effective, proportionate and focused on delivering real benefits for consumers, businesses and the UK economy
  • Now inviting views before reaching a final decision

    • Following its strategic review of 33 market remedies, the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is consulting on its provisional decision to remove 23 measures, retain 6 in full and partially remove 4.

    Market remedies are designed to fix competition problems identified during market investigations. Remedies play an important role in improving competition, but businesses need to dedicate resources to comply with them and the CMA or other bodies must monitor them – so it is important to assess whether they are still needed and whether they are the best use of resource.

    While the CMA excluded from the review remedies that are clearly continuing to deliver impact, it identified 33 remedies (60% of all CMA market remedies in place) for further consideration. These could, for example, have been superseded by new laws and regulations or technological advances that have transformed how consumers buy goods and services.

  • remove 23 now redundant remedies including those relating to how extended warranties on domestic electrical goods are sold; package holidays and tour operators; and the on-air promotion of magazines published or sold by the BBC.
  • partially remove 4 remedies relating to retail banking; home credit; private motor insurance; and certain soft drinks. This involves removing parts of the remedies that are redundant whilst retaining requirements that continue to protect consumers and promote competition.
