Article summary

TMT Analysis: After the Digital Markets Act (DMA) entered into force in November 2022, the European Commission is now hosting a series of workshops to consult stakeholders on specific questions regarding the DMA’s implementation. The first workshop dealt with the prohibition on self-preferencing in Article 6(5) DMA and focused on the interpretation of the provision as well as possible solutions to ensure compliance with it in practice. Dr. Max Klasse, Dr. Anna Blume Huttenlauch, Philipp Trube and Marie-Luise Heuer of BLOMSTEIN consider the prohibition on self-preferencing under the DMA.
